[MPlayer-dev-eng] [BUG][PATCH] parsing of vobsub private data in mkv probably broken

[Moritz Bunkus]

Hey,

this is definitely the right fix. demux_mkv_decode only decompresses at
the moment, but the system might also be used for encryption. While
decompressing usually yields bigger buffers decryption might not. In
such cases (and even theoretically for decompression) we might end up
with invalid memory accesses. As mplayer can play files from over the
network... Well you get the picture.

So I'd say apply it.
