| Summary | Orc compiler stack-based buffer overflow |
| Date | 2024-07-19 12:30 |
| Affected Versions | orc < 0.4.39 |
| IDs | GStreamer-SA-2024-0003<br/>JVN#02030803 / JPCERT#92912620<br/>CVE-2024-40897 |

## Details
Stack-based buffer overflow in the Orc compiler when formatting error messages for certain input files.
## Impact
It is possible for a malicious third party to trigger a buffer overflow and
effect code execution with the same privileges as the orc compiler is called
with by feeding it with malformed orc source files.
This only affects developers and CI environments using orcc, not users of liborc.
## Solution
The Orc 0.4.39 release address the issue.
People using older branches of Orc should apply the patches and recompile.
