    A routine security audit of the mpg321 package revealed a known
    security issue remained unpatched. The vulnerability is a result of
    mpg321 printing embedded ID3 data to the console in an unsafe manner.
  
Impact :

    Successful exploitation would require a victim to play a specially
    crafted audio file using mpg321, potentially resulting in the execution
    of arbitrary code.
  
Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time."
