Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libsndfile-devel package and not the libsndfile-devel package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

A stack-based buffer overflow in psf_memset in common.c in libsndfile 1.0.28 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted audio file. The vulnerability can be triggered by the executable sndfile-deinterleave.
