Published: 21 September 2017

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.

Notes

AuthorNote
rodrigo-zaiden
same patch as CVE-2018-10393.
there is a recent follow up commit that could also be
added when patching this CVE (and CVE-2018-10393)
https://gitlab.xiph.org/xiph/vorbis/commit/a9eb99a5
focal does not have this last patch, but with the first
patch, I understand that it is safe enough.
