Am I affected?
Debian, Ubuntu or Red Hat sometimes backport a fix without changing the upstream version number: such a version reads « to verify », never « affected ».With a domain, we read the version its public headers and pages expose. A distribution build can carry the fix under an older number.
Description
getID3 before 1.9.26 contains an OS command injection vulnerability in shell-out handlers that fail to escape filenames in command strings. Attackers can craft malicious filenames containing shell metacharacters to inject arbitrary commands executed with the privileges of the process embedding getID3.
