CVE-2018-7263
The mad_decoder_run() function in decoder.c in Underbit libmad through 0.15.1b allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (SIGABRT because of double free or corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted file.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.43%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
