Update Information:

Updated sox packages that fix buffer overflows in the WAV file handling
code are now available.

SoX (Sound eXchange) is a sound file format converter. SoX can convert
between many different digitized sound formats and perform simple sound
manipulation functions, including sound effects.

Buffer overflows existed in the parsing of WAV file header fields. It
was possible that a malicious WAV file could have caused arbitrary code
to be executed when the file was played or converted. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the
name CAN-2004-0557 to these issues.

All users of sox should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain
a security patch to resolve these issues.
