Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-16 17:29:42 UTC

This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained.  At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this 
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen 
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on 
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that 
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

Comment 2 Bastien Nocera 2012-10-10 17:09:44 UTC

From the upstream maintainer:
--8<--
This CVE was fixed by commit e8cf0095b3f319739f9aa1ab5a1aa52b76be8cdd:

https://github.com/mpruett/audiofile/commit/e8cf0095b3f319739f9aa1ab5a1aa52b76be8cdd

This commit was first included in Audio File Library version 0.2.7,
released on 21 March 2010. The fix is still present in future versions
of the library including version 0.3.4.
--8<--

FC14 and above ship with 0.2.7 or newer, so this doesn't affect any current versions of Fedora.
