Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability description explicitly names stl_update_connects_remove_1 in connect.c as the location of the heap-based buffer over-read. The GitHub issue (#28) provides a crash trace showing the overflow occurs at line 831 of connect.c within this function during stl_remove_degenerate operations. While stl_remove_degenerate is part of the call chain, the primary vulnerability resides in stl_update_connects_remove_1's handling of connection data. Multiple authoritative sources (CVE, GHSA, Debian advisory) consistently identify this function as the vulnerable component.
