Description:
The original libb64 source is no more maintained for a long time and left many bug unfixed. Like integer overflow, incorrect data type, invalid pointer usage...etc. There was a fork version of the b64 library which fix those bug: https://github.com/libb64/libb64. This library is also being used by some active maintain downstream package like transmission. Could you consider replace the upstream to this fork version? |
