Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Double Free in the start_decoder function, an attacker can trigger memory allocation failure with a specially crafted file. This causes the function to return early, leaving some pointers in f->comment_list initialized. Later, setup_free is called on these pointers in vorbis_deinit, potentially leading to code execution.
