I would have thought there was little danger of an issue. After all, the
file type has been around since the early 1990s to my knowledge and is
basically a pcm file. Other compressed formats can be used to hide things

mp3 files contain metadata as well as audio, the metadata tags can be
quite large and include items which can be used to conceal malware.
All formats contain metadata. And you can't necessarily determine a

manner of audio. 16-bit PCM is just one of a lengthy list.
