SCA: security update for music-metadata (GHSA-f94x-6692-553q)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 473956

Description

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

 - music-metadata is a metadata parser for audio and video media files. In the public development revision
 introduced after 11.14.0, a development-branch regression in the MP4 stsd sample-description parser allows
 an attacker-controlled sample-entry size of zero to prevent the StsdAtom.get cursor from advancing while
 an attacker-controlled entry_count keeps the synchronous loop running. A crafted MP4-family input can
 block the Node.js event loop and grow the sample-description table until the process is terminated or
 exhausts memory. The vulnerable change was present on the public master branch but was not included in
 music-metadata 11.14.0 or any earlier npm release, and version 11.16.0 contains the fix. This issue is
 fixed in version 11.16.0. (CVE-2026-107391)

Solution

Update the music-metadata library and its related packages to version 11.16.0 or later.
