libcue: Arbitrary Code Execution

libcue: Arbitrary Code Execution A vulnerability has been discovered in libcue which could allow for arbitrary code execution. libcue 2023-10-10 2023-10-10 915500 remote 2.2.1-r1 2.2.1-r1

libcue is a CUE Sheet Parser Library.

libcue does not check bounds in a loop and suffers from an integer overflow flaw which can be exploited to take over the program.

Untrusted CUE sheet files can lead to arbitrary code execution. app-misc/tracker-miners[cue] uses libcue to index CUE Sheet files in directories. It is possible that downloading a malicious CUE Sheet file into a directory indexed by tracker-miners could lead to remote code execution.

There is no known workaround at this time.

All libcue users should upgrade to the latest version:


          # emerge --sync
          # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/libcue-2.2.1-r1"
