Summary
CVE-2023-45681 is a vulnerability affecting the stb_vorbis library, which is used for processing Ogg Vorbis files. The issue arises from a potential integer overflow in the `start_decoder` function, leading to memory being allocated insufficiently in `setup_malloc`. An attacker can exploit this by crafting a file that triggers a second integer overflow, causing `setup_malloc` to return 0. This condition can make the exploit more reliable and potentially result in code execution.
