Package name libid3tag
Date May 19th, 2008
Advisory ID MDVSA-2008:103
Affected versions CS3.0, 2008.0, 2008.1

Problem Description

field.c in the libid3tag 0.15.0b library allows context-dependent
attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU and memory consumption)
via an ID3_FIELD_TYPE_STRINGLIST field that ends in '', which
triggers an infinite loop.

The updated packages have been patched to correct this.
