Local stack overflow via sanitizer StackDepot
Published Oct 31, 2022 · Updated May 6, 2025
Out-of-bounds write in pycdc before 2022-10-04 allows local users to cause a service interrupt via decompilation input. The __sanitizer::StackDepotBase<__sanitizer::StackDepotNode component overflows stack storage while pycdc processes input, producing the reported stack overflow. Exploitation requires local execution of pycdc with attacker-controlled input and results in denial of service; confidentiality and integrity impacts are not reported.
