It was discovered that libsndfile incorrectly handled memory when parsing malformed files. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause libsndfile to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only applied to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
(CVE-2014-9496)

Joshua Rogers discovered that libsndfile incorrectly handled division when parsing malformed files. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause libsndfile to crash, resulting in a denial of service.
(CVE-2014-9756)

Marco Romano discovered that libsndfile incorrectly handled certain malformed AIFF files. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause libsndfile to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-7805).

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
