  - miniaudio version 0.11.25 and earlier (fixed in commits 1df46ae and 1df46ae) contain a heap out-of-bounds
    read vulnerability in the WAV BEXT metadata parser that allows attackers to trigger memory access
    violations by processing crafted WAV files. Attackers can exploit improper null-termination handling in
    the coding history field to cause out-of-bounds reads past the allocated metadata pool, resulting in
    application crashes or denial of service. (CVE-2026-32837)
