Package: id3lib-3.8.3 Version: 3.8.3-7.2 Severity: normal Tags: patch User: ubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com Usertags: origin-ubuntu karmic ubuntu-patch
In Ubuntu bug http://launchpad.net/bugs/399423, Thomas Eschenbacher found that id3lib3.8.3 crashes in ID3_TagHeader::Size() due to a missing null pointer check when parsing some mp3 files. He reported the bug upstream at http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2821464&group_id=979&atid=100979 but it has not yet been looked at or incorporated. The patch is attached. Thanks, -- Brian Murray @ubuntu.com
