CVE-2018-13139
A stack-based buffer overflow in psf_memset in common.c in libsndfile 1.0.28 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted audio file.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.57%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
