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.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
