Technical details

A decompression amplification vulnerability in the load_audio function fails to enforce duration or sample limits when decoding FLAC-encoded audio. Attackers can supply small compressed audio files via audio_url or audio_data inputs that decompress into huge PCM buffers, consuming worker memory and CPU resources. The vulnerability requires network access and no authentication.
