[REJECTED CVE] A vulnerability was identified in the mp3splt package where an uninitialized structure with garbage values could be passed to libvorbis after an error was triggered on a malformed file. An attacker could exploit this by crafting a specially designed audio file that causes the application to crash instead of exiting cleanly. This issue was determined to have minimal security impact and the CVE has been rejected by MITRE.

Description Pedro Sampaio 2017-08-11 14:54:00 UTC
A flaw was found in libvorbis 1.3.5. The vorbis_block_clear function in lib/block.c in Xiph.Org libvorbis 1.3.5 can cause a denial of service(NULL pointer 
dereference and application crash) via a crafted ogg file.
