<description>
|
|
<p>A heap-based buffer overflow can be triggered when processing a
|
|
malicious NIST Sphere or WAV audio file.

|
<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>A remote attacker could coerce the victim to run SoX against their
|
|
malicious file. This may be leveraged by an attacker to gain control of
|
|
program execution with the privileges of the user.

|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>All SoX users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
|

|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-sound/sox-14.4.2"
