As reported in bugs.debian.org, there is a critical defect in Ohcount.

The issue, in brief, is that an attack can be executed by using a specially crafted file name that will cause Ohcount to execute arbitrary statements in a shell as the user that is running Ohcount.

The Black Duck Open Hub team is aware of the report and defect and is working on a fix.

The last tagged release of ohcount is from 2009. The latest master code does not have this issue. We have pushed a new release tag, https://github.com/blackducksoftware/ohcount/releases/tag/v3.1.0.
