Description Pedro Sampaio 2017-11-22 14:05:44 UTC

A flaw was found in vorbis-tools 1.4.0-10. A uninitialized local variable in lib/info.c is used as a pointer and later freed, causing the program to crash while parsing a file with oggenc.

Comment 1 Pedro Sampaio 2017-11-22 14:06:41 UTC

Created vorbis-tools tracking bugs for this issue:

Affects: fedora-all [bug 1516379]

Comment 2 Kamil Dudka 2017-12-06 16:16:13 UTC

The patch needs to be applied on libvorbis source code, not vorbis-tools.
