According to the versions of the sox package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - 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 lsx_calloc 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 lsx_readbuf in     formats_i.c.(CVE-2019-13590)

  - 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 lsx_valloc macro that wraps     malloc. When the buffer is allocated, it is smaller     than expected, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow     in channels_start in remix.c.(CVE-2019-8355)

  - An issue was discovered in SoX 14.4.2. lsx_make_lpf in     effect_i_dsp.c allows a NULL pointer     dereference.(CVE-2019-8357)

  - 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.(CVE-2019-8356)

  - In lsx_aiffstartread in aiff.c in Sound eXchange (SoX)     14.4.2, there is a Use-After-Free vulnerability     triggered by supplying a malformed AIFF     file.(CVE-2017-15642)

  - The read_samples function in hcom.c in Sound eXchange     (SoX) 14.4.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial     of service (invalid memory read and application crash)     via a crafted hcom file.(CVE-2017-11358)

  - The startread function in wav.c in Sound eXchange (SoX)     14.4.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of     service (divide-by-zero error and application crash)     via a crafted wav file.(CVE-2017-11332)

  - The wavwritehdr function in wav.c in Sound eXchange     (SoX) 14.4.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial     of service (divide-by-zero error and application crash)     via a crafted snd file, during conversion to a wav     file.(CVE-2017-11359)

  - There is a heap-based buffer overflow in the ImaExpandS     function of ima_rw.c in Sound eXchange (SoX) 14.4.2. A     Crafted input will lead to a denial of service attack     during conversion of an audio file.(CVE-2017-15370)

  - There is a reachable assertion abort in the function     sox_append_comment() in formats.c in Sound eXchange     (SoX) 14.4.2. A Crafted input will lead to a denial of     service attack during conversion of an audio     file.(CVE-2017-15371)

  - There is a stack-based buffer overflow in the     lsx_ms_adpcm_block_expand_i function of adpcm.c in     Sound eXchange (SoX) 14.4.2. A Crafted input will lead     to a denial of service attack during conversion of an     audio file.(CVE-2017-15372)

Several issues were found in SoX, the Swiss army knife of sound processing programs, that could lead to denial of service via application crash or potentially to arbitrary code execution by processing maliciously crafted input files.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 14.4.1-5+deb8u4.

We recommend that you upgrade your sox packages.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - sox: two heap out-of-bounds access issues (oCERT-2014-010) (CVE-2014-8145)

  - sox: null pointer dereference in function lsx_make_lpf in effect_i_dsp.c (CVE-2019-8357)

  - The startread function in wav.c in Sound eXchange (SoX) 14.4.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial     of service (divide-by-zero error and application crash) via a crafted wav file. (CVE-2017-11332)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.
