NVD Description

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

The psf_fwrite function in file_io.c in libsndfile allows attackers to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and application crash) via unspecified vectors related to the headindex variable.
