| | 3 | Media players are especially sensitive to stream corruption. In fact, zzuf started its life as a tool to find bugs in the VLC media player software. The following table gives a few examples of crashes (all programs were the latest version in Debian i386 sid as of 2007/01/14). Click on each link to download the file that caused the crash: |
| | 4 | |
| | 5 | '''Disclaimer 1''': “robust” does not mean that there is no bug, it just means that zzuf could not find one in reasonable time. |
| | 6 | |
| | 7 | '''Disclaimer 2''': segmentation faults reported below are not necessarily bugs in the program itself; for instance, the MPEG-2 crashes are more likely due to a bug in the libmpeg2 library. |
