Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions

Description
The issue is related to the
mp4ff read stsc function in the FAAD2 audio decoder, which can cause a buffer overflow in memory. This can be exploited by an attacker using a specially crafted mp4 file, potentially leading to a denial of service, resulting in a memory allocation error and application crash.Recommendations
For FAAD2 version 2.7, consider disabling the
mp4ff read stsc function as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to mp4 files to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.Exploit
