Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

GHSA-8j4c-6x6g-rq3j affects the npm package music-metadata before 11.15.0, and is fixed in 11.15.0. A crafted .dsf file (or any file starting with the DSD magic) with a small chunk size makes the DSF parser skip a chunk with an un-awaited call, so the resulting error is an unhandled rejection that crashes the Node process even when the caller uses try/catch. An attacker only needs to get such a file parsed, which is a denial-of-service risk. Upgrade to music-metadata 11.15.0 or later.
