A heap buffer overflow vulnerability was found in sox, in the lsxreadbuf function at sox/src/formatsi.c:98:16. This flaw can lead to a denial of service, code execution, or information disclosure.

A floating point exception vulnerability was found in sox, in the readsamples function at sox/src/voc.c:334:18. This flaw can lead to a denial of service.

A floating point exception vulnerability was found in sox, in the lsxaiffstartwrite function at sox/src/aiff.c:622:58. This flaw can lead to a denial of service.

A heap buffer overflow vulnerability was found in sox, in the startread function at sox/src/hcom.c:160:41. This flaw can lead to a denial of service, code execution, or information disclosure.

In SoX 14.4.2, there is a floating-point exception in lsxaiffstartwrite in aiff.c in libsox.a.

In SoX 14.4.2, there is an assertion failure in rateinit in rate.c in libsox.a.

A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the sphere.c startread() functionality of Sound Exchange libsox 14.4.2 and master commit 42b3557e. A specially-crafted file can lead to a heap buffer overflow. An attacker can provide a malicious file to trigger this vulnerability.

A flaw was found in sox 14.4.1. The lsxadpcminit function within libsox leads to a global-buffer-overflow. This flaw allows an attacker to input a malicious file, leading to the disclosure of sensitive information.

A vulnerability was found in SoX, where a heap based overflow was found in formatsi.c:376, function lsxreadwbuf.

A floating point exception (divide-by-zero) issue was discovered in SoX in functon readsamples() of voc.c file. An attacker with a crafted file, could cause an application to crash.

A vulnerability was found in SoX where, a heap overflow in hcom.c:161. Function startread with crafted hcomn file the vulnerability is exploitable.

A floating point exception (divide-by-zero) issue was discovered in SoX in functon startread() of wav.c file. An attacker with a crafted wav file, could cause an application to crash.

SoX - Sound eXchange 14.4.2 and earlier is affected by: Out-of-bounds Read. The impact is: Denial of Service. The component is: readsamples function at xa.c:219. The attack vector is: Victim must open specially crafted .xa file. NOTE: this may overlap CVE-2017-18189.

An issue was discovered in libsox.a in SoX 14.4.2. In sox-fmt.h (startread function), there is an integer overflow on the result of integer addition (wraparound to 0) fed into the lsxcalloc macro that wraps malloc. When a NULL pointer is returned, it is used without a prior check that it is a valid pointer, leading to a NULL pointer dereference on lsxreadbuf in formatsi.c.

An issue was discovered in SoX 14.4.2. One of the arguments to bitrv2 in fft4g.c is not guarded, such that it can lead to write access outside of the statically declared array, aka a stack-based buffer overflow.

An issue was discovered in SoX 14.4.2. lsxmakelpf in effectidsp.c has an integer overflow on the result of multiplication fed into malloc. When the buffer is allocated, it is smaller than expected, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow.

An issue was discovered in SoX 14.4.2. lsxmakelpf in effectidsp.c allows a NULL pointer dereference.

An issue was discovered in SoX 14.4.2. In xmalloc.h, there is an integer overflow on the result of multiplication fed into the lsxvalloc macro that wraps malloc. When the buffer is allocated, it is smaller than expected, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow in channelsstart in remix.c.

In the startread function in xa.c in Sound eXchange (SoX) through 14.4.2, a corrupt header specifying zero channels triggers a NULL pointer dereference, which may allow an attacker to cause denial-of-service via a specially crafted file.
