GHSA-927q-g9w9-pm54: Panic in mp3-metadata due to the lack of bounds checking

April 30, 2025 (updated October 31, 2025)

The get_id3() methods used by mp3_metadata::read_from_slice() does not perform adequate bounds checking when recreating the tag due to the use of desynchronization.

Fixed in Fix index error, released as part of 0.4.0.
