Debian DLA-1010-1 : vorbis-tools security update

medium Nessus Plugin ID 101209

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

vorbis-tools is vulnerable to multiple issues that can result in denial of service.

CVE-2014-9638

Divide by zero error in oggenc with a WAV file whose number of channels is set to zero.

CVE-2014-9639

Integer overflow in oggenc via a crafted number of channels in a WAV file, which triggers an out-of-bounds memory access.

Out-of bounds read in oggenc via a crafted raw file.

We recommend that you upgrade your vorbis-tools packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected vorbis-tools, and vorbis-tools-dbg packages.
