    Summary: libcdio vulnerabilities

    Details: Zhao Liang discovered that libcdio was not properly performing memory management operations when processing ISO files, which could result in a heap buffer overflow or in a NULL pointer dereference. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2017-18198, CVE-2017-18199)
