A Real-Time Data Compression Library

Edit Package lzo

LZO is a portable lossless data compression library written in ANSI C.
It offers pretty fast compression and very fast decompression.
Decompression requires no memory. LZO is suitable for data compression
and decompression in real-time. This means it favors speed over
compression ratio.

- update to 2.08 (bnc#883947) CVE-2014-4607
  - Updated the Autoconf scripts to fix some reported build
    problems.
  - Added CMake build support.
  - Fixed lzo_init() on big-endian architectures like Sparc.
- additional changes in 2.07
  * Fixed a potential integer overflow condition in the "safe"
    decompressor variants which could result in a possible buffer
    overrun when processing maliciously crafted compressed input
    data.
    Fortunately this issue only affects 32-bit systems and also can
    only happen if you use uncommonly huge buffer sizes where you
    have to decompress more than 16 MiB (> 2^24 bytes) untrusted
    compressed bytes within a single function call, so the
    practical implications are limited.
    POTENTIAL SECURITY ISSUE. CVE-2014-4607.
  * Removed support for ancient configurations like 16-bit "huge"
    pointers - LZO now requires a flat 32-bit or 64-bit memory
    model.
  * Assorted cleanups. (forwarded request 239294 from darix)
