Hi:
In the using the speex software, we found that the "speex_alloc" of
the code did not check whether the memory was allocated and used it directly. Is
there a security risk? Is there a solution for this?
For example(Attached code screenshot):
speex-1.2rc1: sb_celp.c Line From 242 to 251. (in function sb_encoder_init)

You can absolutely continue to use Speex for as long as you want. Given that
Opus is much better than Speex, it makes little sense to develop new products
based on Speex, but for things that already use Speex, it often makes sense to
keep it. Although we have stopped improving it, it is still being maintained. We
are not aware of any security vulnerability in the current version, but should
we become aware of one, we would promptly fix it and make a new release.
Cheers,
Jean-Marc
