NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream game-music-emu package and not the game-music-emu package as distributed by Ubuntu.

The Mem_File_Reader::read_avail function in Data_Reader.cpp in the Game_Music_Emu library (aka game-music-emu) 0.6.1 does not ensure a non-negative size, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted file.
