A denial-of-service vulnerability has been identified in the libpspp-core.a component of GNU PSPP, affecting versions through 2.0.1. This flaw allows an attacker to cause a denial-of-service condition, an assertion failure and application exit, through specially crafted input data. Specifically, malicious input can trigger an erroneous call within the src/data/dictionary.c and src/data/variable.c code paths, leading to system instability.
