CVE-2025-50950Public exploit

Application crash via null FileModule dereference

Published Oct 23, 2025 · Updated Oct 23, 2025

NULL pointer dereference in Audiofile 0.3.7 allows attackers to crash an application that processes a crafted audio file. ModuleState::setup accesses a null FileModule pointer when sfconvert calls afGetFrameCount while processing the malformed input. Processing the file is required, and the demonstrated consequence is a read from address zero followed by a segmentation fault.
