Overview

lz4 is a lossless compression algorithm, providing compression speed at 400 MB/s per core, scalable with multi-cores CPU.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Buffer Overflow in LZ4_write32 (related to LZ4_compress_destSize), affecting applications that call LZ4_compress_fast with a large input. (This issue can also lead to data corruption.)
