"Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in SoX (Sound eXchange),
a sound processing program :

CVE-2017-15370

The ImaAdpcmReadBlock function (src/wav.c) is affected by a heap
buffer overflow. This vulnerability might be leveraged by remote
attackers using a crafted WAV file to cause denial of service
(application crash).

CVE-2017-15372

The lsx_ms_adpcm_block_expand_i function (adpcm.c) is affected by a
stack based buffer overflow. This vulnerability might be leveraged by
remote attackers using a crafted audio file to cause denial of service
(application crash).

CVE-2017-15642

The lsx_aiffstartread function (aiff.c) is affected by a
use-after-free vulnerability. This flaw might be leveraged by remote
attackers using a crafted AIFF file to cause denial of service
(application crash).

CVE-2017-18189

The startread function (xa.c) is affected by a NULL pointer
dereference vulnerability. This flaw might be leveraged by remote
attackers using a crafted Maxis XA audio file to cause denial of
service (application crash).

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version
14.4.1-5+deb8u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your sox packages.
