FEDORA-2025-82714dbb22
2025-01-23 01:42:51.098935+00:00
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name        : SDL2_sound
Product     : Fedora 41
Version     : 2.0.4
Release     : 1.fc41
URL         : http://www.icculus.org/SDL_sound
Summary     : An abstract soundfile decoder library
Description :
SDL_sound is a library that handles the decoding of several popular sound
file formats, such as .WAV and .OGG. It is meant to make the programmer's
sound playback tasks simpler. The programmer gives SDL_sound a filename,
or feeds it data directly from one of many sources, and then reads the
decoded waveform data back at her leisure. If resource constraints are a
concern, SDL_sound can process sound data in programmer-specified blocks.
Alternately, SDL_sound can decode a whole sound file and hand back a
single pointer to the whole waveform. SDL_sound can also handle sample
rate, audio format, and channel conversion on-the-fly and
behind-the-scenes, if the programmer desires.

Fedora 41: 2025-82714dbb22 alarming: SDL2_sound Buffer Overflow Issues

January 23, 2025
Latest stable release from upstream

Summary

SDL_sound is a library that handles the decoding of several popular sound

file formats, such as .WAV and .OGG. It is meant to make the programmer's

sound playback tasks simpler. The programmer gives SDL_sound a filename,

or feeds it data directly from one of many sources, and then reads the

decoded waveform data back at her leisure. If resource constraints are a

concern, SDL_sound can process sound data in programmer-specified blocks.

Alternately, SDL_sound can decode a whole sound file and hand back a

single pointer to the whole waveform. SDL_sound can also handle sample

rate, audio format, and channel conversion on-the-fly and

behind-the-scenes, if the programmer desires.
