SoX ".WAV" ICRD and ISFT Buffer Overflow
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
SoX is a "universal sound sample translator". Two buffer overflows have
been found in SoX, allowing a remote attacker that can fool a user into
listening into a maliciously created WAV with the SoX product to execute
arbitrary code under the user privileges.
DETAILS
Vulnerable Systems:
* SoX version 12.17.4 and prior
The two vulnerabilities can be found inside the wav.c file and are caused
by inadequate testing done on the length received from the WAV header
file. Both vulnerabilities are located inside the st_wavstartread().
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The information has been provided by Ulf Harnhammar.
