Title:	Mandriva Update for libsndfile MDVSA-2011:119 (libsndfile)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'libsndfile'; package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'libsndfile' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. Vulnerability Insight: A vulnerability was discovered and corrected in libsndfile: An integer overflow flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was found in the way the libsndfile library processed certain Ensoniq PARIS Audio Format (PAF) audio files. An attacker could create a specially-crafted PAF file that, when opened, could cause an application using libsndfile to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application (CVE-2011-2696). Packages for 2009.0 are provided as of the Extended Maintenance Program. The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue. Affected Software/OS: libsndfile on Mandriva Linux 2009.0, Mandriva Linux 2009.0/X86_64, Mandriva Linux 2010.1, Mandriva Linux 2010.1/X86_64, Mandriva Enterprise Server 5, Mandriva Enterprise Server 5/X86_64 Solution: Please Install the Updated Packages. CVSS Score: 6.8 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
