Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2023-04-03 07:53:58 UTC
Hello Mike,

the current 5.0 or 5.0r1 we have in tree suffers from a 'global buffer overflow read' fixed here:
https://github.com/vapier/ncompress/commit/9eb66df69e8b0281a4a43819f570c3a6d55b1806

I have verified that git version no longer has this problem, would you mind make a new release?
