Lifecycle Timeline
1DescriptionNVD
A stack buffer overflow in the compute_codewords function in stb_vorbis through 2019-03-04 allows an attacker to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code by opening a crafted Ogg Vorbis file.
AnalysisAI
A stack buffer overflow in the compute_codewords function in stb_vorbis through 2019-03-04 allows an attacker to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code by opening a crafted Ogg Vorbis. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.8), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. This Out-of-bounds Write vulnerability could allow attackers to write data beyond allocated buffer boundaries leading to code execution or crashes.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability is classified as Out-of-bounds Write (CWE-787), which allows attackers to write data beyond allocated buffer boundaries leading to code execution or crashes. A stack buffer overflow in the compute_codewords function in stb_vorbis through 2019-03-04 allows an attacker to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code by opening a crafted Ogg Vorbis file. Affected products include: Stb Vorbis Project Stb Vorbis, Debian Debian Linux. Version information: through 2019.
RemediationAI
A vendor patch is available. Apply the latest security update as soon as possible. Validate write boundaries, use memory-safe languages, enable compiler protections (ASLR, stack canaries).
