libsndfile is a C library for reading and writing files containing
|

|
|
sampled sound.

The following vulnerabilities have been found in libsndfile:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>Tobias Klein reported that the header_read() function in
|
||
|
|
src/common.c uses user input for calculating a buffer size, possibly
|
||
|
|
leading to a heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2009-1788).</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>The
|
||
|
|
vendor reported a boundary error in the aiff_read_header() function in
|
||
|
|
src/aiff.c, possibly leading to a heap-based buffer overflow
|
||
|
|
(CVE-2009-1791).</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|

<p>
|
||
|
|
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted AIFF
|
||
|
|
or VOC file in a program using libsndfile, possibly resulting in the
|
||
|
|
execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the
|
||
|
|
application.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</impact>
|
||
|
|
<workaround>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
||
|

<resolution>

<p>
|
||
|
|
All libsndfile users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<code>
|
||
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
||
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/libsndfile-1.0.20"</code>
