Comment 2 Riccardo Schirone 2019-01-03 09:50:24 UTC 
Function parse_makernote() in internal/dcraw_common.cpp does not correctly sanitize the ynum_len when dealing with FUJI raw images, possibly causing a stack-based buffer overflow.
Comment 3 Riccardo Schirone 2019-01-03 09:51:46 UTC 
Statement:

This issue did not affect the versions of LibRaw as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 as they did not include support for Fuji maker notes.

This is fixed in LibRaw-0.19.2
