The version of audiofile installed on the remote host is prior to 0.3.6-9. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2024-2601 advisory.

    Buffer overflow in the afReadFrames function in audiofile (aka libaudiofile and Audio File Library) allows     user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (program crash) or possibly execute arbitrary     code via a crafted audio file, as demonstrated by sixteen-stereo-to-eight-mono.c. (CVE-2015-7747)

    Heap-based buffer overflow in the MSADPCM::initializeCoefficients function in MSADPCM.cpp in audiofile     (aka libaudiofile and Audio File Library) 0.3.6 allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a     crafted audio file. (CVE-2017-6827)

    Heap-based buffer overflow in the readValue function in FileHandle.cpp in audiofile (aka libaudiofile and     Audio File Library) 0.3.6 allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a crafted WAV file.
    (CVE-2017-6828)

    The decodeSample function in IMA.cpp in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6 allows remote attackers     to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted file. (CVE-2017-6829)

    Heap-based buffer overflow in the alaw2linear_buf function in G711.cpp in Audio File Library (aka     audiofile) 0.3.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted file.
    (CVE-2017-6830)

    Heap-based buffer overflow in the decodeBlockWAVE function in IMA.cpp in Audio File Library (aka     audiofile) 0.3.6, 0.3.5, 0.3.4, 0.3.3, 0.3.2, 0.3.1, 0.3.0 and 0.2.7 allows remote attackers to cause a     denial of service (crash) via a crafted file. (CVE-2017-6831)

    Heap-based buffer overflow in the decodeBlock in MSADPCM.cpp in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6,     0.3.5, 0.3.4, 0.3.3, 0.3.2, 0.3.1, 0.3.0, 0.2.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (crash) via a crafted file. (CVE-2017-6832)

    The runPull function in libaudiofile/modules/BlockCodec.cpp in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6     allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and crash) via a crafted file.
    (CVE-2017-6833)

    Heap-based buffer overflow in the ulaw2linear_buf function in G711.cpp in Audio File Library (aka     audiofile) 0.3.6, 0.3.5, 0.3.4, 0.3.3, 0.3.2, 0.3.1, 0.3.0, 0.2.7 allows remote attackers to cause a     denial of service (crash) via a crafted file. (CVE-2017-6834)

    The reset1 function in libaudiofile/modules/BlockCodec.cpp in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6     allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and crash) via a crafted file.
    (CVE-2017-6835)

    Heap-based buffer overflow in the Expand3To4Module::run function in libaudiofile/modules/SimpleModule.h in     Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6, 0.3.5, 0.3.4, 0.3.3, 0.3.2, 0.3.1, 0.3.0 allows remote attackers     to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted file. (CVE-2017-6836)

    WAVE.cpp in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (crash) via vectors related to a large number of coefficients. (CVE-2017-6837)

    Integer overflow in sfcommands/sfconvert.c in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6 allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted file. (CVE-2017-6838)

    Integer overflow in modules/MSADPCM.cpp in Audio File Library (aka audiofile) 0.3.6 allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted file. (CVE-2017-6839)

    Heap buffer overflow vulnerability in FilePOSIX::read in File.cpp in audiofile 0.3.6 may cause denial-of-     service via a crafted wav file, this bug can be triggered by the executable sfconvert. (CVE-2020-18781)
