This issue allows for local execution to manipulate memory, potentially leading to a crash or arbitrary code execution. A heap-based buffer overflow is a condition where a program writes more data to a heap-allocated memory block than it can hold, overwriting adjacent memory.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
