...nute to explain i would greatly appreciate any help. One thing that i cannot make sense from in the FLAC documentation (a thing that is hard to find info on in general) is how the decorrelation fase works exactly. I understand that the two channels in a stereo file can have similarities that can be exploitet when compressing, but why is this transformation used: mid = (left + right) / 2, side = left - right? Is it simply to straighten out the signals and thereby having less information to compress? I would really appreciate any help as there are many articles mentioning the transformations used by di...

I just saw this: https://ics-cert.us-cert.gov/advisories/ICSA-14-353-01 which includes this: " A remote attacker can send a carefully crafted packet that can overflow a stack buffer and potentially allow malicious code to be executed with the privilege level of the ntpd process. All NTP4 releases before 4.2.8 are vulnerable." "This vulnerability is resolved with NTP-stable4.2.8
