CVE-2011-2696 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2011-2696):
  Integer overflow in libsndfile before 1.0.25 allows remote attackers to
  cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary
  code via a crafted PARIS Audio Format (PAF) file that triggers a heap-based
  buffer overflow.
