Well, Lean is written in Lean, so I am pretty sure a runtime bug like this could be exploited to prove `False`. Yes, since the kernel is written in C++, technically it's not the part affected by this bug, but since you cannot use the Lean kernel without the Lean compiler, this difference does not matter.
