Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-05-07 21:30 – Updated: 2026-05-12 16:29A weakness has been identified in OSGeo gdal up to 3.13.0dev-4. The affected element is the function GDfieldinfo of the file frmts/hdf4/hdf-eos/GDapi.c. Executing a manipulation can lead to out-of-bounds read. The attack needs to be launched locally. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. Upgrading to version 3.13.0RC1 is sufficient to fix this issue.
