An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2004-0557 exists.\n\nAffected product: Conectiva Linux. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2004-0557/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2004-0557/index.md)","id":"CVE-2004-0557","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2004-0557/index.md","name":"CVE-2004-0557","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2004-0557","DSA-565-1","GHSA-xxf9-f548-r28c","RHSA-2004:409"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Sound eXchange library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via malicious WAV files due to buffer overflows in the SoX library, requiring user interaction to open the file.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"linux","vendor":"conectiva"},{"product":"linux","vendor":"gentoo"},{"product":"enterprise_linux","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_desktop","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"fedora_core","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"sox","vendor":"sox"}],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Multiple buffer overflows in the st_wavstartread function in wav.c for Sound eXchange (SoX) 12.17.2 through 12.17.4 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via certain WAV file header fields.","ecosystems":["Red Hat:enterprise_linux:3::as","Red Hat:enterprise_linux:3::desktop","Red Hat:enterprise_linux:3::es","Red Hat:enterprise_linux:3::ws"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":2,"first_seen":"2004-08-01","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2004-08-01","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"369","stars":null,"title":"SoX -
