CVE-2018-7253
The ParseDsdiffHeaderConfig function of the cli/dsdiff.c file of WavPack 5.1.0 allows a remote attacker to cause a denial-of-service (heap-based buffer over-read) or possibly overwrite the heap via a maliciously crafted DSDIFF file.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.87%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
