Can I put ham in slow cooker overnight?

I have 10 for lunch tomorrow and I'm doing slow cooker glazed ham for the meat eaters.
I can't be bothered with getting up stupidly early so was thinking of setting it up tonight with a timer to come on at 5am. Is that risky leaving it at room temp all night?

Just cook it on low overnight?

I want to serve it hot at 1pm, after half an hour in the oven to glaze. If I put it on at bedtime it would be cooking a bit too long?

I think it would be fine I my slow cooker on low overnight. But also wouldn't be overly worried for myself if a ham had been out at winter room temp overnight. It won't be that much warmer than the fridge surely? Possibly wouldn't be overly keen to eat it if I was pregnant etc

Thanks. I decided to put it in whatever time I had a bathroom trip!
So it went in at 4am and is now browning with a honey glaze.
