  - H5O__layout_decode in H5Olayout.c in HDF5 through 2.3.0 does not validate that a chunked dataset's stored
    chunk-layout dimensionality matches its dataspace rank when an existing dataset is opened, whereas this
    check is performed only at dataset-creation time. This allows attackers to cause a denial of service
    (divide-by-zero and application crash in H5S__hyper_iter_get_seq_list in src/H5Shyper.c) via a crafted
    HDF5 file with mismatched chunk/dataspace ranks that is opened and read via H5Dopen2 and H5Dread, e.g. by
    the h5repack tool. (CVE-2026-19025)
