Descriptions

The sd2_parse_rsrc_fork function in sd2.c in libsndfile allows attackers to have unspecified impact via vectors related to a (1) map offset or (2) rsrc marker, which triggers an out-of-bounds read.

La función sd2_parse_rsrc_fork en sd2.c en libsndfile permite a atacantes tener un impacto no especificado a través de vectores relacionados con un (1) desplazamiento de mapa o (2) marcador rsrc, lo que provoca una lectura fuera de rango.

It was discovered that libsndfile incorrectly handled memory when parsing malformed files. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause libsndfile to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only applied to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. Joshua Rogers discovered that libsndfile incorrectly handled division when parsing malformed files. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause libsndfile to crash, resulting in a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
