mp4 demuxer (untrusted input): bound every allocation sized from a box
field (stsz/stco/stsc counts, stts/ctts run-lengths, per-sample and moov
sizes, plus an absolute cap so a sparse file can't inflate file_len);
guard the parse_stsd slice and a zero mdhd timescale; cap track count so
the per-track PID can't overflow; rewrite read_moov to handle size==0 /
size<8 / 64-bit largesize; parse esds/AudioSpecificConfig for AAC; write
tkhd duration in the movie timescale.
decrypt: resolve_mux_key_map now fails loud on an extent no key can
classify instead of inheriting the previous extent's key, so a keymap
never silently carries a wrong key; the sweep/patch key-fetch recovery
fails loud when a unit is still unresolved after the retry.
AACS: reject inverted forensic segments in both range builders; compare
the forensic index in u16 space so an out-of-range value can't truncate
onto a valid u8 index. RECOVERED_ERROR no longer latches the damage zone,
preserving the 30s wedge cooldown for a following hard error.
audio: AAC/MP2/MP3/FLAC carry the last PTS across a PES with no timestamp;
the DTS-HD extension-sync search is bounded to after the core; the MP4
16.16 sample-rate field saturates. demux_sink records the video reference
before the kind filter so audio:// / sub:// keep multi-clip PTS continuity
and the DELAY tag.
Remove a dead error variant and the AACS-unsupported-video code; codec
comments cite the primary format specs; assorted doc/naming fixes and
regression tests throughout.
Surgical fixes (each with a regression test that fails without the change):
mux/mkv.rs, mux/demux_sink.rs: drive the clip-boundary timeline epoch
off the resolved PRIMARY VIDEO track, not the literal stream index 0.
An M2TS/PMT title can list an audio ES before video, so streams[0] may
be audio; a non-video epoch driver ratchets the frontier and inflates
the timeline. mkv cluster-opening falls back to track 0 for audio-only
titles so they still open clusters.
mux/codec/ac3.rs: correct ACMOD_CHANNELS — acmod=5 (3/1) is 4 channels,
not 3 (was undercounting a 3/1 stream); fix the A/52 Table 5.8 doc.
disc/mod.rs: HDMV coding_type 0x91 (Interactive Graphics / menus) no
longer maps to PGS subtitle — it falls through to Unknown so the PMT/STN
walker drops it instead of surfacing a bogus subtitle track.
mux/videomap.rs + mux/mkv.rs: FVI colour now mirrors the MKV muxer's CICP
precedence (measured CICP authoritative; HDR-driven PQ/HLG transfer
override) via a shared cicp_for_video helper, so the two sinks can't
disagree (HDR10 BT.2020 no longer emits SDR transfer 14).
mux/mkvstream.rs: saturating_add on cluster_ts + rel_ts so an adversarial
CLUSTER_TIMESTAMP near i64::MAX can't overflow/panic before the existing
saturating_mul.
mux/timeline.rs: tighten the tail-straggler clamp so a normal new-epoch
non-video frame leading the sparse video frontier by >3s is not demoted
into the previous clip's epoch.
mux/m2ts_mux/mod.rs: re-stamp PCR per video TS packet (mid-PES), not only
at PES boundaries, so a large UHD I-frame can't open a multi-second PCR
gap; modular 33-bit PTS rebasing so a real 90 kHz clock wrap is not
collapsed to PTS 0 (pre-base frames still floor to 0).
io/byte_prefetcher.rs, sector/prefetched.rs: wrap the producer feed loop
in catch_unwind and emit a typed error sentinel on panic, so a mid-stream
producer panic is not read as a clean EOF at the demux boundary (which
would silently truncate the mux).
mux/codec/h264.rs: extend HIGH_PROFILES to the full ISO/IEC 14496-15 set
that mandates the avcC chroma/bit-depth extension (adds 244 et al.).
Doc/comment accuracy: css/mod.rs (50000 sectors, not scrambled-sectors),
aacs/decrypt.rs (decrypt_unit already-clear path), ifo.rs (TT_SRPT at
0xC4), css/lfsr.rs (LFSR0 24-bit; TAB1-then-XOR cipher; real scramble-flag
predicate), disc/read_error.rs (for_sweep does bounded transient retries).
Skipped: keydb.rs SSRF guard (low/latent, no live caller) — a hard
loopback block breaks an existing behavioral test that exercises the
header-EOF path over a loopback server; a clean fix needs a resolver test
seam beyond this surgical pass. The sibling keydb_fetch.rs comment fix is
out of scope (freemkv crate).
Test-hardening release, no runtime changes. Adds spec-grounded unit tests
across the silent-corruption surfaces — UDF/MPLS/CLPI/IFO parsing, BD/DVD
title + extent assembly, AACS/CSS key handling, TS/PS demux + codec parsers,
MKV/EBML container output, the mux pipeline, sector prefetch + decrypt
decorator, drive/SCSI sense decoding, label extraction, and core I/O. Each
test is grounded in the format spec or real on-disc behavior and verified to
fail under a targeted source mutation. No behavior changed.
Library-wide review-and-fix pass: tightened AACS keydb/handshake/variant
handling and trailing-partial-unit policy, corrected MPLS mark offset and
added UDF allocation bounds, hardened the mux/codec framing and M2TS paths,
guarded SCSI READ CAPACITY short transfers and unified error mapping, added
overflow guards on untrusted disc input, and made prefetch shutdown
deterministic. Release profile now builds with thin LTO + single codegen unit.
MKV: cluster boundaries now require a video keyframe in addition to the
5s minimum, so every cluster has a CuePoint at its start. Pre-first-
keyframe frames are dropped. Adds a SeekHead at Segment start with
fixed-width back-patched SeekPositions for Info/Tracks/Chapters/Cues.
Before this change a 2h26m UHD rip had 52 CuePoints across ~1750
clusters and a 16.5-minute gap between adjacent seek entries; players
seeking inside that gap had to scan from the prior cue. After, one
CuePoint per cluster.
TS (tsmux production path + m2ts_mux): PesFrame.keyframe is plumbed
end-to-end. Codec-private parameter sets are prepended on the first
keyframe (not the first frame); non-key video before any keyframe is
dropped. The first TS packet of a keyframe video PES carries an
adaptation field with random_access_indicator=1. m2ts_mux previously
hardcoded RAI=1 on every PCR packet; that is now gated on the current
PES being a keyframe video PES, combining correctly with PCR when both
land on the same packet.
Adds 17 tests covering keyframe alignment, cue count/position/timing,
SeekHead correctness, RAI set/clear, codec_private gating, non-key drop,
and PCR+RAI combination.
- m2ts_mux: replace u64::is_multiple_of (stable in 1.87+) with %.
CI on the pinned 1.86 toolchain rejected the unstable feature use.
- mux/{fmp4,hevc,m2ts_mux}: rustfmt drift cleanup (test-code wrapping).
SocketSink + UdpSocketSink (`src/io/sink/socket.rs`) — sequential-only
TCP/UDP write destinations. SocketSink wraps BufWriter<TcpStream> with
1 MiB capacity, tunes SO_SNDBUF on construction, calls shutdown(Write)
on finish(). UdpSocketSink emits one datagram per write — caller
packetizes. Both impl Write+Send and thus satisfy SequentialSink via
the Phase 2 blanket; neither impls Seek, so RandomAccessSink is
correctly inaccessible (compile error to mux MKV onto a socket).
New sequential container muxers in src/mux/:
- hevc/ — raw HEVC Annex B elementary stream. Length-prefixed NALU
→ 00 00 00 01 NALU. hvcC parsing emits VPS/SPS/PPS once at stream
head. Fully ships.
- m2ts_mux/ — standard MPEG-TS (188-byte packets). Single program,
HEVC video on PID 0x100, optional AC3/TrueHD audio on PID 0x101.
PAT+PMT re-emitted every 250 packets; PCR stamped on video every
40 packets. Hand-rolled, no new deps. Distinct from the existing
BD-TS (192-byte) `mux::m2ts::M2tsStream` — that path stays as-is.
- fmp4/ — fragmented MP4. STUB: ftyp + minimal moov skeleton with
one HEVC video trak + mvex/trex. Media fragments (moof+mdat) are
TODO for v0.22.0 — write_video accumulates frames into a pending
buffer that finish() clears. Init segment is well-formed enough
that init_segment_starts_with_ftyp_then_moov asserts the box
chain.
17 new unit tests added (socket round-trip, HEVC Annex B conversion,
M2TS packet alignment + PAT/PMT cadence + per-PID CC, fMP4 box chain).
All 514 lib tests + 17 new = pass on Rust 1.86 (fmt + clippy + test
via (internal)/scripts/precommit.sh libfreemkv).
No new dependencies. No version bump. Don't-touch list clean.
