"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.

  - A weakness has been identified in LibRaw up to 0.22.0. This impacts the function HuffTable::initval of the
    file src/decompressors/losslessjpeg.cpp of the component JPEG DHT Parser. This manipulation of the
    argument bits[] causes out-of-bounds write. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit
    has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. Upgrading to version 0.22.1 will fix
    this issue. Patch name: a6734e867b19d75367c05f872ac26322464e3995. It is advisable to upgrade the affected
    component. (CVE-2026-5318)
