Description

This security bulletin contains information about 13 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-6827)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in Heap-based buffer overflow in the MSADPCM::initializeCoefficients function in MSADPCM.cpp in audiofile (aka libaudiofile and Audio File Library) 0.3.6. A remote attacker can use a crafted audio file. to trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


2) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-6828)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in Heap-based buffer overflow in the readValue function in FileHandle.cpp in audiofile (aka libaudiofile and Audio File Library) 0.3.6. A remote attacker can use a crafted WAV file. to trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


3) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-6829)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The decodeSample function in IMA.cpp in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted file.


4) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-6830)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in Heap-based buffer overflow in the alaw2linear_buf function in G711.cpp in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6. A remote attacker can use a crafted file. to trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


5) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-6831)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in Heap-based buffer overflow in the decodeBlockWAVE function in IMA.cpp in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6. A remote attacker can use a crafted file. to trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


6) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-6832)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in Heap-based buffer overflow in the decodeBlock in MSADPCM.cpp in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6. A remote attacker can use a crafted file. to trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


7) Division by zero (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-6833)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to divide-by-zero error within The runPull function in libaudiofile/modules/BlockCodec.cpp in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and crash) via a crafted file.


8) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-6834)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in Heap-based buffer overflow in the ulaw2linear_buf function in G711.cpp in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6. A remote attacker can use a crafted file. to trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


9) Division by zero (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-6835)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to divide-by-zero error within The reset1 function in libaudiofile/modules/BlockCodec.cpp in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and crash) via a crafted file.


10) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-6836)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in Heap-based buffer overflow in the Expand3To4Module::run function in libaudiofile/modules/SimpleModule.h in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6. A remote attacker can use a crafted file. to trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


11) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-6837)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

WAVE.cpp in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via vectors related to a large number of coefficients.


12) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-6838)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Integer overflow in sfcommands/sfconvert.c in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted file.


13) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-6839)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Integer overflow in modules/MSADPCM.cpp in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted file.
