Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-bounds Write due to the improper handling of buffer size validations. An attacker can cause a buffer overflow and potentially execute arbitrary code or cause a system crash by supplying crafted input to the affected function. This is only exploitable if the system zlib is not used and the PCL version is older than 1.14.0.
