  - libInstPatch through 1.1.7 contains a heap out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the SoundFont 2 loader
    because ipatch_sf2_gen_is_valid() does not range-check generator IDs before the validity mask test.
    Attackers can supply crafted SF2 files with out-of-range pgen or igen generator IDs to write attacker-
    chosen values past the zone genarray, corrupting heap memory and crashing Swami or other consumers.
