7.5
High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
libsndfile versions prior to 1.0.17
Description:
The issue is related to a heap-based buffer overflow in the
flac buffer copy function, which may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a FLAC file with crafted PCM data. This could potentially lead to a breach of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information. The exploitation of this issue can be done remotely.Recommendations:
For libsndfile versions prior to 1.0.17, update to version 1.0.17 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to FLAC files or avoiding the use of the
flac buffer copy function until a patch is available.Fix
