Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: AlsaPlayer versions prior to 0.99.80-rc3

Description: The issue is related to a buffer overflow in the vorbis stream info function, which can be triggered by a .OGG file containing long comments. This allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.
