A heap buffer overflow can be triggered when playing back specially crafted Creative Labs Audio Files (VOC) and AIFF files. The libsndfile library has been updated to version 1.0.20 which fixes the issues. Version 5.552 of the Winamp media player is affected as it uses the library. An update for Winamp, however, is not yet officially available."
