libfaust.so is vulnerable to stack overlfow. The vulnerability is due to not restricting/sanitizing user input passed to the streambinopShared function resulting in infinite recursive calls to the boxppShared::print() function in /boxes/ppbox.cpp file . The attacker can use this function to mount Denial Of Service (DOS) attack.
