Since the maintainer has not responded with details or fixes, users should avoid processing untrusted source files containing #line directives or GNU linemarkers until an official fix or guidance is available. Monitoring the project repository and security advisories for updates is recommended.
Description
8cc is vulnerable to an Out‑of‑Bounds Read due to improper handling of #line directives and GNU linemarkers. The compiler accepts attacker-controlled filename and line number metadata and later uses it without validation when accessing source line arrays. By supplying invalid or oversized line numbers, an attacker can trigger out-of-bounds memory access and a crash. Maintainer of this project was notified early about this vulnerability, but didn't respond with the details of vulnerability or vulnerable version range. Version corresponding to the commit b480958 was tested and confirmed as vulnerable, other versions were not tested but might also be vulnerable.
