Summary: libsndfile security update

Details: Libsndfile is a C library for reading and writing files containing sampled sound such as MS Windows WAV and the Apple/SGI AIFF format through one standard library interface. Security Fix(es): An out-of-bounds read flaw was found in libsndfile's FLAC codec functionality. An attacker who is able to submit a specially crafted file (via tricking a user to open or otherwise) to an application linked with libsndfile and using the FLAC codec, could trigger an out-of-bounds read that would most likely cause a crash but could potentially leak memory information that could be used in further exploitation of other flaws.(CVE-2021-4156)
