Alpine: multiple mpg123 packages: security update to 1.32.8-r0

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 424167

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in mpg123 when handling crafted streams. When decoding PCM, the
 libmpg123 may write past the end of a heap-located buffer. Consequently, heap corruption may happen, and
 arbitrary code execution is not discarded. The complexity required to exploit this flaw is considered high
 as the payload must be validated by the MPEG decoder and the PCM synth before execution. Additionally, to
 successfully execute the attack, the user must scan through the stream, making web live stream content
 (such as web radios) a very unlikely attack vector. (CVE-2024-10573)
