What it is

⚠️ An out-of-bounds read in libpano13 could let an attacker peek into the wrong data! Think of it like a waiter accidentally handing you someone else's order by misreading the table numbers. The waiter just reached out of bounds, not realizing what they were serving! If exploited, this could leak sensitive information, revealing data that should remain secure. While there's no confirmed exploitation yet, the potential for unwanted data exposure is a serious concern.
