In the SPA_CHOICE_Enum case, values[index+1] was used to skip the
default value at index 0, but the bounds check only validated index,
not index+1. Move bounds checks into each case with the correct limit.

The switch in message_get had no default case. An unrecognized tag byte
from a malicious client would skip the switch body without consuming
the va_arg parameter, desynchronizing all subsequent argument reads
and causing undefined behavior.

do_cork_stream, do_flush_trigger_prebuf_stream, and do_set_stream_name
did not check whether the stream had completed format negotiation.
Add create_tag guards matching the pattern in do_set_stream_buffer_attr.

A trailing backslash in a module argument string would cause the
escape handling to advance past the null terminator, reading one
byte out of bounds on the next loop iteration.

If a client sends UPDATE_PLAYBACK_STREAM_SAMPLE_RATE before format
negotiation completes, stream->ss.rate could be 0, causing a
floating-point division by zero. Add the same create_tag guard used
in do_set_stream_buffer_attr.

The create_tag guard added in a2de6c886 also rejected memblocks for
upload streams, which never clear create_tag. Upload streams allocate
their buffer immediately, so the NULL deref risk does not apply to
them. Exempt STREAM_TYPE_UPLOAD from the check.

read_cvolume accepted channels=0, creating a degenerate zero-length
volume array that is passed to pw_stream_set_control and SPA pod
building. Reject zero channels alongside the existing CHANNELS_MAX
upper bound check.

A client can create a stream with invalid sample_spec (rate=0) via
format_info negotiation, then send SET_STREAM_BUFFER_ATTR before
negotiation completes. fix_playback_buffer_attr divides by ss.rate,
crashing the daemon. Reject buffer attr changes on streams that
have not completed format negotiation.

The client-provided rate was used without validation. A zero or
excessively large rate produces extreme correction values passed
to pw_stream_set_control. Reject rates that are zero or exceed
RATE_MAX.

A client can send memblock data to a playback stream channel before
format negotiation completes and the stream buffer is allocated,
causing a NULL pointer dereference crash. Reject memblock data for
streams that are still being created (create_tag != SPA_ID_INVALID).

format_info_to_spec parses the format.channel_map property without
checking against CHANNELS_MAX (64) before writing to map->map[].
A client supplying more than 64 channel names overflows the stack-
allocated channel_map buffer.

File and Resource Handling: Medium
In on_connect(), if client_new() fails or pw_loop_add_io() fails, the
accepted client_fd is never closed. The error path only calls
client_free() which relies on pw_loop_destroy_source() to close the fd,
but if the source was never created, the fd leaks.
Fix by closing client_fd in the error path when it has not been
transferred to a loop source.

The V4L2 device file descriptor was opened without the O_CLOEXEC flag.
If a child process is subsequently spawned (e.g., via fork+exec), the
video device fd would be inherited, potentially allowing the child
process unauthorized access to the camera device.
Fixed by adding O_CLOEXEC to the open() flags.

Memory Safety: High
The read_arbitrary() bounds check used `m->offset + len > m->length`
where len is an attacker-controlled uint32_t read from the PulseAudio
protocol message. When m->offset is small and len is close to
UINT32_MAX, the addition wraps around to a small value, bypassing
the bounds check. This allows read_arbitrary() to return a pointer
within the message buffer but report an enormous length to the caller,
leading to out-of-bounds memory reads.
Fixed by rearranging the arithmetic to use subtraction:
`len > m->length - m->offset`, which cannot overflow since
m->offset <= m->length is maintained as an invariant.

File and Resource Handling: Medium
Several file and socket operations were missing the close-on-exec flag,
which causes file descriptors to leak to child processes created via
fork+exec. This could allow child processes unintended access to
privileged resources.
- node-driver.c: SOCK_DGRAM socket for SIOCETHTOOL ioctl leaked to
child processes
- pw-container.c: Unix domain listen socket leaked to spawned
container processes
- compress-offload-api.c: ALSA compress-offload device fd leaked to
child processes
Added O_CLOEXEC to open() calls and SOCK_CLOEXEC to socket() calls.

Memory Safety: High
The stream_control_info() callback copied control->n_values floats
into stream->volume.values without checking bounds. The source allows
up to MAX_VALUES (256) entries but the destination volume array is
only CHANNELS_MAX (64) entries, so a stream with more than 64 channel
volumes would overflow the buffer. Clamp n_values to CHANNELS_MAX
before the copy.

Memory Safety: High
When the system does not provide reallocarray(), pw_reallocarray()
falls back to realloc(ptr, nmemb * size). The multiplication
nmemb * size can silently overflow, causing a smaller-than-expected
allocation. Subsequent writes to the allocation then overflow the
heap buffer.
This function is used extensively throughout PipeWire for allocating
arrays from protocol data, making it a wide attack surface.
Fix by adding an explicit overflow check before the multiplication
in the fallback path, matching the behavior of the real
reallocarray().

Memory Safety: High
In ensure_size(), the check `m->length + size <= m->allocated` could
overflow when both m->length and size are large uint32_t values,
wrapping around to a small number and incorrectly passing the bounds
check. This could allow writing past the end of the allocated buffer.
Rewrite the check as `size <= m->allocated - m->length` which cannot
overflow since we already verified m->length <= m->allocated. Also add
an explicit overflow check for the new allocation size calculation.

In pw_conf_save_state(), the return value of fdopen() was not checked
for NULL. If fdopen() fails, subsequent fprintf() and fclose() calls
would operate on a NULL FILE pointer, causing a crash. Additionally,
the file descriptor would be leaked since fclose() would not be called.
Added a NULL check after fdopen() that closes the raw fd and returns
an error on failure.

Three modules had "impl->capture_info.rate = !impl->playback_info.rate"
which evaluates to 0 (logical NOT of a non-zero rate) instead of
copying the playback rate. This is a copy-paste typo from the line
above which correctly uses "= impl->capture_info.rate".
Affects module-filter-chain, module-loopback, module-example-filter.

If the filter process doesn't dequeue/queue a buffer (as can be the
case in jack-tunnel-sink under xrun cases), pw-filter will set the
io to NEED_DATA with ID_INVALID.
This will then make the mixer in the next cycle not recycle any buffers
and it won't be able to produce any new ones either.
If the filter the dequeues/queues a buffer in the next process, it won't
dequeue a buffer for recycle because io is NEED_DATA/INVALID from the
previous cycle (io != HAVE_DATA -> continue).
This will the continue in an infinite loop producing "out of buffers"
forever.
Also check that we actually have a buffer to recycle, if we don't we can
try to dequeue one and place that in the io. This will then unlock the
loop, make the mixer recycle the buffer and produce a new one.
This is the same logic as is present in pw-stream for the same reason.
Fixes#5246

It's a terrible idea, doesn't work so well (locks up the data-loop when
read is blocked) and a security mightmare. If you really need to pipe
samples through some program, do that somewhere else, like from the
command line with pw-cat and pw-record.
Only start receiving packets when we are streaming.
Otherwise the ROC source will start receiving and queueing packets and
consume a lot of memory while we don't read the packets from the queue.
Likewise, stop receiving packets when we pause.
Fixes#5250
ACP was re-selecting the “best” port on every port availability event,
even when a port was already explicitly selected by the user. This
differs from PulseAudio’s behavior, where port switching decisions are
left to higher-level policy.
This caused issues on devices where Line Out (speakers) and Headphones
share the same analog interface: when headphones are plugged in, ACP
would immediately switch away from the user-selected Line Out, or end up
in a state where no sound is produced despite selecting speakers explicitly from
clients like pwvucontrol.
Fix this by only re-evaluating and switching ports when:
- no active port is currently selected, or
- the active port has become unavailable
This preserves manual user choices and prevents ACP from fighting client
port selections during route activation.
Additionally, adjust ALSA mixer paths to better separate Line Out and
Headphones behavior:
- Disable Line Out controls in the headphones path
- Add explicit Line Out and Auto-Mute Mode handling in the lineout path
Together, these changes align PipeWire’s behavior more closely with
PulseAudio and fix cases where selecting speakers while headphones are
plugged results in no audio output.

MT7925 fails to setup a SCO connection that results to working LC3-24kHz
audio. Other controllers (Intel etc) appear to work OK.
Add quirk for disabling this codec, and disable it for this Mediatek
controller.

When there is a stream without tx_latency enabled, the fill_count ends
with MIN_FILL value. This causes one buffer of silence to be written to
every stream before the actual data in each iteration.
Consequently, more data is written than consumed in each iteration.
After several iterations, spa_bt_send fails, triggering a
group_latency_check failure in few next iterations and leading to
dropped data.
Skip streams without tx_latency enabled in fill level calculations
to prevent these audio glitches.

FDK-AAC encoder uses band pass filter, which is automatically
applied at all bitrates.
For CBR encoding mode, its values are as follows (for stereo):
* 0-12 kb/s: 5 kHz
* 12-20 kb/s: 6.4 kHz
* 20-28 kb/s: 9.6 kHz
* 40-56 kb/s: 13 kHz
* 56-72 kb/s: 16 kHz
* 72-576 kb/s: 17 kHz
VBR uses the following table (stereo):
* Mode 1: 13 kHz
* Mode 2: 13 kHz
* Mode 3: 15.7 kHz
* Mode 4: 16.5 kHz
* Mode 5: 19.3 kHz
17 kHz for CBR is a limiting value for high bitrate.
Assume >110 kbit/s as a "high bitrate" CBR and increase the
band pass cutout up to 19.3 kHz (as in mode 5 VBR).

The DSP port type needs to be something else than "other" for it
to become visible. This way we can also remove the IS_VISIBLE check
because we never add invisible ports to the object list.
The CHECK_PORT condition in impl_node_port_reuse_buffer was inverted with a negation operator, causing the function to reject valid output ports and accept invalid ones.
Fixes the logic so that valid ports proceed to buffer recycling and invalid ports are properly rejected.
