Description Sam Fowler 2018-03-09 02:18:55 UTC 
zsh through version 5.4.2 is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow in the exec.c:hashcmd() function. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service.

Do we have a reproducer and/or fix for this bug?

"a stack-based buffer overflow in the exec.c:hashcmd() function" is too vague and I was not able to find any publicly available information about CVE-2018-1071).
