Description:
Manigandan Radhakrishnan has reported a vulnerability in YAMT, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to an input validation error in the "id3tag_sort()" function and can be exploited via a specially crafted MP3 file containing shell meta-characters in the ID3 tags.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary commands, but requires that the "Sort" option is used.

The vulnerability has been reported in version 0.5. Other versions may also be affected.
