- There's a flaw in lz4. An attacker who submits a crafted file to an application linked with lz4 may be
able to trigger an integer overflow, leading to calling of memmove() on a negative size argument, causing
an out-of-bounds write and/or a crash. The greatest impact of this flaw is to availability, with some
potential impact to confidentiality and integrity as well. (CVE-2021-3520)
