Csound hetro File Handling Stack Buffer Overflow
This module exploits a buffer overflow in Csound before 5.16.6. The overflow occurs when trying to import a malicious hetro file from tabular format. In order to achieve exploitation the user should import the malicious file through csound with a command like 'csound -U het_import msf.csd file.het'. This exploit doesn't work if the 'het_import' command is used directly to convert the file.
Mitigation:
Upgrade to Csound 5.16.6 or later version
