Description

It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2023-2024-641 advisory.

An out-of-bounds stack write flaw was found in unixODBC on 64-bit architectures where the caller has 4 bytes and callee writes 8 bytes. This issue may go unnoticed on little-endian architectures, while big- endian architectures can be broken. (CVE-2024-1013)
