It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2023-2024-504 advisory.

  • A flaw was found in Indent. This issue may allow a local user to use a specially-crafted file to trigger a heap-based buffer overflow, which can lead to an application crash. (CVE-2024-0911)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
