** Information type changed from Public to Public Security ** Summary changed:
- [SRU] Update to bugfix release 3.0.7 in Bionic + [SRU] Update to bugfix release 3.0.8 in Bionic ** Description changed: [Impact] VLC has received a bugfix update on the 3.0.x release path, which was recommended to us for additional stability in the Long Term Support release. [Test Case] Install vlc from bionic-proposed and test it for a decent amount of time. Play different video formats to catch any regressions, and use it as you normally would. [Regression Potential] The 3.0.x branch receives only bug fixes, which are cherry-picked from the master branch where the main development takes place. So, I think the regression potential is low. [Other Info] Here is the upstream Git repository: http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc/vlc-3.0.git;a=summary - We released the previous VLC bugfix release for this branch into Bionic - in late July, see bug 1774067 for details. This was successful, and no - regressions have been reported. - Upstream changelog: - - Changes between 3.0.5 and 3.0.6: - -------------------------------- + Changes between 3.0.7.1 and 3.0.8: + ---------------------------------- Core: - * Fix potential subtitle picture allocation failures - - Codec: - * Add support for 12 bits decoding of AV1 - * Fix HDR support in AV1 when the container provides the metadata - - Changes between 3.0.4 and 3.0.5: - -------------------------------- - - Access: - * Improve RTSP playback - * BluRay fixes and improvements, notably for menus and seeking - * Improve the UDP/RTP truncated issue - - Codec: - * Add a new AV1 decoder based on dav1d library - * Enable libaom decoder by default - * Fix decoding of some HEVC streams with macOS hardware decoding + * Fix stuttering for low framerate videos Demux: - * MP4: Fix reading of some HDR metadata - * Miscellaneous AV1 demuxing improvements - * Fix CAF integer-underflow - * Fix an MKV crash on iOS 12.0, on iPhone XS phones + * Fix channel ordering in some MP4 files + * Fix glitches in TS over HLS + * Add real probing of HLS streams + * Fix HLS MIME type fallback - Packetizer: - * Add an AV1 packetizer + Decoder: + * Fix WebVTT subtitles rendering - macOS: - * Starting with VLC 3.0.5, VLC will be distributed with runtime hardening - enabled on macOS Mojave. - All external VLC plugins need to be signed by a DeveloperID certificate in order - to continue working with the official VLC package. - * Update the VLC dark UI to better match the dark mode of macOS Mojave - * Fix convert & save panel stream option + Stream filter: + * Improve network buffering - Audio output: - * Fix corking when the playback state is paused - * Improve corking on Android + Misc: + * Update Youtube script + + Audio Output: + * macOS/iOS: Fix stuttering or blank audio when starting or seeking when using external audio devices (bluetooth for example) + * macOS: Fix AV synchronization when using external audio devices Video Output: - * Fix Direct3D11 tone-mapping when HDR is displayed on an SDR screen - * More accurate colors for SD sources in Direct3D11 - * Disable hardware decoding on some old Intel GPUs - * Fix zero-copy GPU acceleration on AMD RX Vega - * Misc Direct3D11 fixes + * Direct3D11: Fix hardware acceleration for some AMD drivers - Miscellaneaous: - * Improve ChromeCast - * Update numerous 3rd party libraries, including for minor security issues - * Update Youtube support - * Fix subtitles rendering with specific fonts with negative horizontal advance + Stream output: + * Fix transcoding when the decoder does not set the chroma + + Security: + * Fix a buffer overflow in the MKV demuxer (CVE-2019-14970) + * Fix a read buffer overflow in the avcodec decoder (CVE-2019-13962) + * Fix a read buffer overflow in the FAAD decoder + * Fix a read buffer overflow in the OGG demuxer (CVE-2019-14437, CVE-2019-14438) + * Fix a read buffer overflow in the ASF demuxer (CVE-2019-14776) + * Fix a use after free in the MKV demuxer (CVE-2019-14777, CVE-2019-14778) + * Fix a use after free in the ASF demuxer (CVE-2019-14533) + * Fix a couple of integer underflows in the MP4 demuxer (CVE-2019-13602) + * Fix a null dereference in the dvdnav demuxer + * Fix a null dereference in the ASF demuxer (CVE-2019-14534) + * Fix a null dereference in the AVI demuxer + * Fix a division by zero in the CAF demuxer (CVE-2019-14498) + * Fix a division by zero in the ASF demuxer (CVE-2019-14535) + + Contribs: + * Update to a newer libmodplug version (0.8.9.0) ** Tags removed: cve-2018-19857 ** Tags added: bionic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1812480 Title: [SRU] Update to bugfix release 3.0.8 in Bionic To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vlc/+bug/1812480/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
