Fedora: 28 sox Update Resolves Division by Zero Errors and Fixes

SoX (Sound eXchange) is a sound file format converter. SoX can convert

between many different digitized sound formats and perform simple

sound manipulation functions, including sound effects.

Fixes **CVE-2017-11332**, **CVE-2017-11358**, and **CVE-2017-11359**. ----**Prevents division by zero in `src/ao.c`** This bug is hard to reproduce,

depending on the HW configuration or installed OS parts. For me, it can be

reproduced only in `mock`. In this update, error message should be displayed

instead of SIGFPE.
