Title
libmikmod before 3.3.14 Heap Buffer Overflow via DSM Loader Integer Overflow
Summary
libmikmod before 3.3.14 contains an integer overflow vulnerability in DSM_Load() in load_dsm.c that allows attackers to trigger heap buffer overflow via crafted track counts. Attackers can supply a DSM module whose numchn and numpat product wraps a 16-bit value, overwriting heap memory to cause crashes or potential code execution.
