The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-4704-1 advisory.

  - In libsndfile version 1.0.28, an error in the aiff_read_chanmap() function (aiff.c) can be exploited to     cause an out-of-bounds read memory access via a specially crafted AIFF file. (CVE-2017-6892)

  - Heap-based Buffer Overflow in the psf_binheader_writef function in common.c in libsndfile through 1.0.28     allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified     other impact. (CVE-2017-12562)

  - An out of bounds read in the function d2alaw_array() in alaw.c of libsndfile 1.0.28 may lead to a remote     DoS attack or information disclosure, related to mishandling of the NAN and INFINITY floating-point     values. (CVE-2017-14245)

  - An out of bounds read in the function d2ulaw_array() in ulaw.c of libsndfile 1.0.28 may lead to a remote     DoS attack or information disclosure, related to mishandling of the NAN and INFINITY floating-point     values. (CVE-2017-14246)

  - In libsndfile 1.0.28, a divide-by-zero error exists in the function double64_init() in double64.c, which     may lead to DoS when playing a crafted audio file. (CVE-2017-14634)

  - In libsndfile 1.0.25 (fixed in 1.0.26), a divide-by-zero error exists in the function     wav_w64_read_fmt_chunk() in wav_w64.c, which may lead to DoS when playing a crafted audio file.
    (CVE-2017-16942)

  - A stack-based buffer overflow in psf_memset in common.c in libsndfile 1.0.28 allows remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted     audio file. The vulnerability can be triggered by the executable sndfile-deinterleave. (CVE-2018-13139)

  - An issue was discovered in libsndfile 1.0.28. There is a NULL pointer dereference in the function     sf_write_int in sndfile.c, which will lead to a denial of service. (CVE-2018-19432)

  - An issue was discovered in libsndfile 1.0.28. There is a buffer over-read in the function i2ulaw_array in     ulaw.c that will lead to a denial of service. (CVE-2018-19661)

  - An issue was discovered in libsndfile 1.0.28. There is a buffer over-read in the function i2alaw_array in     alaw.c that will lead to a denial of service. (CVE-2018-19662)

  - There is a heap-based buffer over-read at wav.c in wav_write_header in libsndfile 1.0.28 that will cause a     denial of service. (CVE-2018-19758)

  - It was discovered the fix for CVE-2018-19758 (libsndfile) was not complete and still allows a read beyond     the limits of a buffer in wav_write_header() function in wav.c. A local attacker may use this flaw to make     the application crash. (CVE-2019-3832)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

  - In libsndfile before 1.0.28, an error in the     'flac_buffer_copy()' function (flac.c) can be exploited     to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially     crafted FLAC file.(CVE-2017-7585)

  - In libsndfile before 1.0.28, an error in the     'header_read()' function (common.c) when handling ID3     tags can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer     overflow via a specially crafted FLAC     file.(CVE-2017-7586)

  - In libsndfile before 1.0.28, an error in the     'flac_buffer_copy()' function (flac.c) can be exploited     to cause a segmentation violation (with write memory     access) via a specially crafted FLAC file during a     resample attempt, a similar issue to     CVE-2017-7585.(CVE-2017-7741)

CVE-2017-8362 (Medium): The flac_buffer_copy function in flac.c in libsndfile 1.0.28 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid read and application crash) via a crafted audio file.

CVE-2017-8363 (Medium): The flac_buffer_copy function in flac.c in libsndfile 1.0.28 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read and application crash) via a crafted audio file.

CVE-2017-8365 (Medium): The i2les_array function in pcm.c in libsndfile 1.0.28 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer over-read and application crash) via a crafted audio file.

CVE-2017-12562 (High): Heap-based Buffer Overflow in the psf_binheader_writef function in common.c in libsndfile through 1.0.28 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact.

Xin-Jiang on Github reports :

CVE-2017-14634 (Medium): In libsndfile 1.0.28, a divide-by-zero error exists in the function double64_init() in double64.c, which may lead to DoS when playing a crafted audio file.

The remote Debian 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-3058 advisory.

  - Heap-based Buffer Overflow in the psf_binheader_writef function in common.c in libsndfile through 1.0.28     allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified     other impact. (CVE-2017-12562)

  - An out-of-bounds read flaw was found in libsndfile's FLAC codec functionality. An attacker who is able to     submit a specially crafted file (via tricking a user to open or otherwise) to an application linked with     libsndfile and using the FLAC codec, could trigger an out-of-bounds read that would most likely cause a     crash but could potentially leak memory information that could be used in further exploitation of other     flaws. (CVE-2021-4156)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

It was discovered that there was a heap buffer overflow attack in libsndfile, a library for reading/writing audio files. An attacker could cause a remote denial of service attack by tricking the function into outputting a large amount of data.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', this issue has been fixed in libsndfile version 1.0.25-9.1+deb7u4.

We recommend that you upgrade your libsndfile packages.
