Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions HDF5 versions up to 1.14.6

Description A problematic vulnerability was found in HDF5, affecting the function H5F accum free of the file src/H5Faccum.c. The manipulation of the argument overlap size leads to a heap-based buffer overflow. This issue requires local attacking to be exploited.

Additionally, be cautious when handling the overlap size argument to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
