| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in cfitsio. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by enticing a user or automated system to process a specially crafted Flexible Image Transport System (FITS) file. Due to improper bounds checking when handling variable-length string columns in the ffgcls2() function, an out-of-bounds write occurs, which can lead to memory corruption and arbitrary code execution.
