NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream lua5.4 package and not the lua5.4 package as distributed by Wolfi.

singlevar in lparser.c in Lua from (including) 5.4.0 up to (excluding) 5.4.4 lacks a certain luaK_exp2anyregup call, leading to a heap-based buffer over-read that might affect a system that compiles untrusted Lua code.
