The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200608-14 (DUMB: Heap buffer overflow)

Luigi Auriemma found a heap-based buffer overflow in the     it_read_envelope function which reads the envelope values for volume,     pan and pitch of the instruments referenced in a '.it' (Impulse     Tracker) file with a large number of nodes.

Impact :

By enticing a user to load a malicious '.it' (Impulse Tracker) file, an     attacker may execute arbitrary code with the rights of the user running     the application that uses a vulnerable DUMB library.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.
