    user-supplied data, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker can leverage this
    vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. (CVE-2024-8838)

    user-supplied data, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker can leverage this
    vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. (CVE-2024-8840)
