Testing complete the srpm libsndfile-1.0.23-2.1.mga1.src.rpm on Mageia release 1 (Official) for x86_64 ,works for me too when I convert a OGG file to WAV file with Audacity.

Validating Advisory: ======================== Updated libsndfile packages fix security vulnerability: An integer overflow flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was found in the way the libsndfile library processed certain Ensoniq PARIS Audio Format (PAF) audio files. An attacker could create a specially-crafted PAF file that, when opened, could cause an application using libsndfile to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application (CVE-2011-2696).
