Descriptions

The bark_noise_hybridmp function in psy.c in Xiph.Org libvorbis 1.3.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds access and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted mp4 file.

La función bark_noise_hybridmp en psy.c en Xiph.Org libvorbis 1.3.5 permite que atacantes remotos provoquen una denegación de servicio (acceso fuera de límites y cierre inesperado de aplicación) o, probablemente, provocar cualquier otro tipo de impacto mediante un archivo mp4 modificado.

It was discovered that Vorbis incorrectly handled certain files. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.
