Detail
| Ulf Harnhammar has reported two vulnerabilities in SoX, a universal sound sample translator, which may be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system with a specially crafted .wav file. For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 12.17.3-4woody2. For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 12.17.4-9. We recommend that you upgrade your sox package. |

| Id | Description |
|---|---|
| 8267 | SoX .WAV File Processing Multiple Field Overflow SoX contains a flaw that may allow a malicious user to execute arbitrary code on a remote system. The issue is triggered when a user executes a specially crafted .wav file created by a malicious user which will overflow a buffer in the st_wavstartread() function of wav.c. It is possible that the flaw may allow remote code execution on the local system resulting in a loss of confidentiality and integrity. |
