  "title": "fluidsynth: FluidSynth is a software synthesizer based on the SoundFont 2 specifications",
  "description": "FluidSynth is a software synthesizer based on the SoundFont 2 specifications. From 2.5.0 until 2.5.6, the SF2 parser computes the DMOD modulator count as chunk.size / SF_MOD_SIZE - 1 without rejecting chunks smaller than one record. A crafted SF2 file containing a zero-sized DMOD chunk makes the unsigned subtraction wrap to UINT_MAX, and the parser then attempts billions of SFMod allocations. This exhausts process memory and causes denial of service. No workaround is available. This issue is fixed in version 2.5.6.",
