  - A vulnerability classified as problematic was found in HDF5 1.14.6. This vulnerability affects the
    function H5FS__sinfo_serialize_node_cb of the file src/H5FScache.c. The manipulation leads to heap-based
    buffer overflow. Local access is required to approach this attack. The exploit has been disclosed to the
    public and may be used. (CVE-2025-7067)
