Description Laura Pardo 2018-02-23 22:05:10 UTC 
A flaw was found in lame. The III_dequantize_sample function in layer3.c in mpglib, as used in libmpgdecoder.a in LAME 3.99.5 and other products, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack-based buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted audio file.
