The remote Debian 10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-3315 advisory.

  - 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)

  - 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)

  - A vulnerability was found in SoX, where a heap-buffer-overflow occurs in function lsx_read_w_buf() in     formats_i.c file. The vulnerability is exploitable with a crafted file, that could cause an application to     crash. (CVE-2021-23159)

  - A vulnerability was found in SoX, where a heap-buffer-overflow occurs in function startread() in hcom.c     file. The vulnerability is exploitable with a crafted hcomn file, that could cause an application to     crash. (CVE-2021-23172)

  - A floating point exception (divide-by-zero) issue was discovered in SoX in functon read_samples() of voc.c     file. An attacker with a crafted file, could cause an application to crash. (CVE-2021-23210)

  - A floating point exception (divide-by-zero) issue was discovered in SoX in functon startread() of wav.c     file. An attacker with a crafted wav file, could cause an application to crash. (CVE-2021-33844)

  - A flaw was found in sox 14.4.1. The lsx_adpcm_init function within libsox leads to a global-buffer-     overflow. This flaw allows an attacker to input a malicious file, leading to the disclosure of sensitive     information. (CVE-2021-3643)

  - A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the sphere.c start_read() functionality of Sound     Exchange libsox 14.4.2 and master commit 42b3557e. A specially-crafted file can lead to a heap buffer     overflow. An attacker can provide a malicious file to trigger this vulnerability. (CVE-2021-40426)

  - In SoX 14.4.2, there is a floating-point exception in lsx_aiffstartwrite in aiff.c in libsox.a.
    (CVE-2022-31650)

  - In SoX 14.4.2, there is an assertion failure in rate_init in rate.c in libsox.a. (CVE-2022-31651)

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

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.

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM / 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5904-1 advisory.

    Helmut Grohne discovered that SoX incorrectly handled certain inputs. If a user or an automated system     were tricked into opening a specially crafted input file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue     to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 ESM, Ubuntu 16.04 ESM, and Ubuntu     18.04 LTS. (CVE-2019-13590)

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 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. 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)

  - 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 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)
