sox: two heap out-of-bounds access issues (oCERT-2014-010)
Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in Sound eXchange (SoX) 14.4.1 and earlier allow remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a crafted WAV file to the (1) start_read or (2) AdpcmReadBlock function.
It was discovered that SoX did not correctly process NIST Sphere and WAV audio files. By tricking a victim into processing a specially crafted NIST Sphere or WAV audio file, a remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running SoX.

oCERT reports sox vulnerabilities found by Michele Spagnuolo of Google Security Team:
"""
We have 2 heap-oob (one sometimes also causes SIGSEGV), 1 null pointer dereference and 6 divisions by zero that reproduce in both 14.3.1 and 14.4.1. The memory corruptions on the heap are potentially exploitable.
The divisions by zero and the *(0x0), of course, are not security relevant.
The maintainer provided 2 patches (they are attached) which have been validated by original report.
