How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:8 soundtouch.

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:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

The RateTransposer::setChannels function in RateTransposer.cpp in libSoundTouch.a in Olli Parviainen SoundTouch 2.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and application exit), as demonstrated by SoundStretch.
