A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in libsndfile version 1.2.2 and potentially earlier versions when processing malformed IRCAM audio files. The vulnerability occurs in the ircam_read_header function at src/ircam.c:164 during sample rate processing, leading to memory corruption and potential code execution.
