Description

Red Hat reports :

Will Drewry of the Google Security Team reported several flaws in the way libvorbis processed audio data. An attacker could create a carefully crafted [Vorbis] audio file in such a way that it could cause an application linked with libvorbis to crash, or execute arbitrary code when it was opened.
