Description
A weakness has been identified in OSGeo gdal up to 3.13.0dev-4. The affected element is the function GDfieldinfo of the file frmts/hdf4/hdf-eos/GDapi.c.

Upgrading to version 3.13.0RC1 is sufficient to fix this issue. This patch is called a791f70f8eaec540974ec989ca6fb00266b7646c. The affected component should be upgraded.
