Description Pedro Sampaio 2018-09-19 20:11:32 UTC 
The WavFileBase class in WavFile.cpp in Olli Parviainen SoundTouch 2.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap corruption from size inconsistency) or possibly have unspecified other impact, as demonstrated by SoundStretch.

Comment 3 Adam Mariš 2018-11-07 14:09:34 UTC 
The root cause of this issue is the same as of CVE-2018-17097. The same upstream patch fixes both issues:

https://gitlab.com/soundtouch/soundtouch/commit/7f594f8b7d10bbc16a4a31de8ec5a279af9c7378
Comment 4 Adam Mariš 2018-11-07 14:10:53 UTC 
Statement:

This issue did not affect the versions of soundtouch as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 as they did not include the vulnerable code.
