Vulnerability in OpusDecoder's audify Package Can Lead to Process Crash

CVE-2024-21522

What is CVE-2024-21522?

The audify package suffers from a vulnerability related to improper validation of array index. Specifically, when utilizing the new OpusDecoder().decode or new OpusDecoder().decodeFloat functions, the frameSize parameter is not validated for negative values. This oversight can ultimately result in a process crash, potentially impacting applications that rely on this package for audio decoding. Developers using any version of the audify package should implement preventive measures to verify the frameSize input to avoid such disruptions.
