Hi Aric, I'm not trying to correct you here, I just don't understand a comment, so I'm asking for clarification:
+ int idx; + if(sfb > 21) return; /* similarity fix related to CVE-2006-1655 */
What is a "similarity fix"? Or did you mean "similar to fix for CVE..." instead?
Thanks, --Juan
It means similar fix... however that wording appears in the original patch to libmpg123 that corrects this problem and so in the layer3.c implementation in modern libmpg123
So i debated changing the wording or keeping the original wording and decided to keep it the same as layer3.c in libmpg123 so that if later someone does work to try to update wines mpg library it would not show up as a diff.
