Overview

CVE-2025-4640 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on May 14, 2025.

Technical Description

Out-of-bounds Write vulnerability in PointCloudLibrary pcl allows Overflow Buffers. Since version 1.14.0, PCL by default uses a zlib installation from the system, unless the user sets WITH_SYSTEM_ZLIB=FALSE.
