Package : gdal
CVE ID : CVE-2021-45943
A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was discovered in gdal, a
Geospatial Data Abstraction Library, which could result in denial of
service or potentially the execution of arbitrary code, if a specially
crafted file is processed with the PCIDSK driver.
For the stable distribution (bullseye), this problem has been fixed in
version 3.2.2+dfsg-2+deb11u2.
We recommend that you upgrade your gdal packages.
