CVE NOT AVAILABLE CWE-119  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade mp3-metadata to version 0.4.0 or higher.

Overview

mp3-metadata is a metadata parser for MP3 files.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-Bounds due to inadequate bounds checking in the get_id3 method used by mp3_metadata::read_from_slice. An attacker can cause the application to crash by sending crafted input that exploits the desynchronization used in tag processing.
