NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream m17n-lib package and not the m17n-lib package as distributed by Echo. See How to fix? for Echo:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in m17n-lib. A partial failure during library initialization can leave an internal driver pointer uninitialized. Under specific error conditions, such as system resource exhaustion or database corruption, an application attempting to open an input method dereferences this null pointer without proper validation. This issue causes the application to crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
