NVD Description

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

The TDStretch::processSamples function in source/SoundTouch/TDStretch.cpp in SoundTouch 1.9.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and CPU consumption) via a crafted wav file.
