CVE-2020-10810 [MEDIUM] CWE-119 hdf5: Null pointer dereference in function H5AC_unpin_entry() in H5AC.c
hdf5: Null pointer dereference in function H5AC_unpin_entry() in H5AC.c
An issue was discovered in HDF5 through 1.12.0. A NULL pointer dereference exists in the function H5AC_unpin_entry() located in H5AC.c. It allows an attacker to cause Denial of Service.
Statement: HDF5 is included as part of a loose dependency trail from python3-hardware package. There is a very low likelihood that an attacker would be able to exploit this vulnerability in a meaningful way in both OpenShift and OpenStack
In OpenShift 4.3, hdf5 is included in the container openshift/ironic-hardware-inventory-recorder-image, the dependency tail is: python3-hardware -> python3-pandas -> python3-tables -> hdf5
Package: hdf5 (Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4) - Will not fix
