Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions LAME version 3.99.5

Description The issue is related to a NULL Pointer Dereference in the hip decode init function within libmp3lame/mpglib interface.c. This occurs when processing a malformed mpg file, due to an incorrect calloc call.

Recommendations For LAME version 3.99.5, consider avoiding the use of the hip decode init function until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, restrict the processing of mpg files to minimize the risk of exploitation.
