CVE-2017-15046
LAME 3.99.5, 3.99.4, 3.98.4, 3.98.2, 3.98 and 3.97 have a stack-based buffer overflow in unpack_read_samples in frontend/get_audio.c, a different vulnerability than CVE-2017-9412.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.73%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
