Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in the (1) abc_MIDI_drum and (2) abc_MIDI_gchord functions in load_abc.cpp in libmodplug 0.8.8.4 and earlier allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted ABC.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
