Hi

As reported by Chris Evans via

Incorrect emulation of the SPC700 audio co-processor of the Super
Nintendo Entertainment System allows the execution of arbitrary code
if a malformed SPC music file is opened.

Debian released a DSA for this issue (in the qemu-music-emu source
package):

There is an obvious typo in the above, not qemu-music-emu, but
game-music-emu.
