MEDIUM5.5EPSS 0.21%sox - security update
Published: 7/14/2019Modified: 4/28/2026
Also known as:DEBIAN-CVE-2019-13590
Description
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.
