Description

This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) 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.


2) 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.


3) 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.


4) 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.


5) 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.
