CVE-2026-107392: music-metadata: uncatchable process crash parsing a crafted `.dsf` (residual of CVE-2026-32256)
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 30/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.35% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: Borewit music-metadata 11.15.0.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Borewit music-metadata 11.15.0 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
music-metadata is a metadata parser for audio and video media files. Prior to 11.15.0, the DSF parser handles an unrecognized chunk by calling tokenizer.ignore without awaiting the returned promise and without first rejecting a chunk size smaller than the 12-byte chunk header. A crafted DSF input can produce a negative ignore length; with strtok3 10.3.5 or later, the resulting RangeError is detached from the parseBuffer promise and becomes an unhandled rejection under Node.js default behavior. The parse call can appear to resolve before the process crashes, bypassing per-parse try/catch handling. The demonstrated impact is availability loss only and requires the DSF parsing path. This issue is fixed in version 11.15.0.
