If it is suitable for a CVE please assign one. Thanks.

Description:
libming is a Flash (SWF) output library. It can be used from PHP, Perl, Ruby, 
Python, C, C++, Java, and probably more on the way..

A fuzzing revealed a left shift in listmp3. The bug does not reside in any 
shared object but if you have a web application that calls directly the 
listmp3 binary to parse untrusted mp3, then you are affected.

The complete UBSan output:

# listmp3 $FILE
listmp3.c:94:23: runtime error: left shift of negative value -1
listmp3.c:95:23: runtime error: left shift of negative value -1

Affected version:
