An issue was discovered in post.trm in Gnuplot 5.2.5. This issue allows an
attacker to conduct a buffer overflow with an arbitrary amount of data in
the PS_options function. This flaw is caused by a missing size check of an
argument passed to the “set font” function. This issue occurs when the
Gnuplot postscript terminal is used as a backend.
