Integer overflow in the mid function in toolkit/tbytevector.cpp in TagLib 1.7 and earlier allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted file header field in a media file, which triggers a large memory allocation.
Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 201206-16 - Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in TagLib, possibly resulting in Denial of Service. Versions less than 1.7.1 are affected.
