| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
libsndfile version 1.0.28
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in a buffer over-read and application crash, via a crafted audio file. This is due to a problem in the i2les array function in pcm.c.
Recommendations
For libsndfile version 1.0.28, consider avoiding the use of crafted audio files until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, restrict the processing of untrusted audio files to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this issue.
