It was discovered that libsndfile did not correctly handle description chunks in CAF audio files If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted CAF audio file, an attacker could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program ...
Alan Rad Pop discovered that libsndfile, a library to read and write sampled audio data, is prone to an integer overflow This causes a heap-based buffer overflow when processing crafted CAF description chunks possibly leading to arbitrary code execution For the oldstable distribution (etch) this problem has been fixed in version 1016-2+etch1 F ...
