 - An error within the parse_minolta() function (dcraw/dcraw.c) in LibRaw versions prior to 0.18.11 can be exploited to trigger an infinite loop via a specially crafted file. (CVE-2018-5813)

 - A flaw was found in LibRaw. A heap-buffer-overflow in raw2image_ex() caused by a maliciously crafted file may lead to an application crash. (CVE-2023-1729)
