https://issues.rpath.com/browse/RPL-610
Description:
Previous versions of the libmusicbrainz package are vulnerable to
compromised or otherwise malicious servers, if a client attempts
to access the server. While this is a remote source of data,
it cannot be triggered directly by a remote attacker, and requires
explicit or implicit user complicity. It is therefore similar to
mail client IMAP parsing vulnerabilities.
