"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.

block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted
to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without
introducing additional issues.");
