Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.64%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

An issue was discovered in SoX 14.4.2. lsx_make_lpf in effect_i_dsp.c has an integer overflow on the result of multiplication fed into malloc. When the buffer is allocated, it is smaller than expected, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow.
