CVE-2026-33491: Zen-C has Stack-Based Buffer Overflow in Identifier Mangling

Zen C is a systems programming language that compiles to human-readable GNU C/C11. Prior to version 0.4.4, a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the Zen C compiler allows attackers to cause a compiler crash or potentially execute arbitrary code by providing a specially crafted Zen C source file (`.zc`) with excessively long struct, function, or trait identifiers. Users are advised to update to Zen C version v0.4.4 or later to receive a patch.
