| Description: | The zsh shell is a command interpreter usable as an interactive login shell and as a shell script command processor. Zsh resembles the ksh shell (the Korn shell), but includes many enhancements. Zsh supports command-line editing, built-in spelling correction, programmable command completion, shell functions (with autoloading), a history mechanism, and more.

zsh: Stack-based buffer overflow in gen_matches_files() at compctl.c (CVE-2018-1083)
zsh: buffer overflow for very long fds in >& fd syntax (CVE-2014-10071)
