Debian Security Advisory DSA-1742-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Nico Golde
March 16th, 2009 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : libsndfile
Vulnerability : integer overflow
Problem type : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2009-0186
Debian Bug : none
BugTraq ID : 33963

Alan Rad Pop discovered that libsndfile, a library to read and write
sampled audio data, is prone to an integer overflow. This causes a
heap-based buffer overflow when processing crafted CAF description
chunks possibly leading to arbitrary code execution.

For the oldstable distribution (etch) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.0.16-2+etch1.

For the stable distribution (lenny) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.0.17-4+lenny1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.0.19-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your libsndfile packages.

Upgrade instructions
- --------------------

wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
