Description:
Ubuntu has acknowledged some vulnerabilities in pulseaudio, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).
The vulnerabilities are caused due to the incorrect use of "assert()" while processing certain requests. These can be exploited to terminate the server by sending specially crafted requests.
