Done.

[palmer, 2015/11/26 01:30:37]

What is the type of |info->iLayerNum|? 

[hbos, 2015/11/27 14:43:43]

It's also int so that's fine.

+    const SLayerBSInfo& layerInfo = info->sLayerInfo[iLayer];

+      required_size += layerInfo.pNalLengthInByte[iNal];

[palmer, 2015/11/26 01:30:37]

Is the value |layerInfo.pNalLengthInByte[iNal]| trustworthy? What stops
|required_size| from overflowing?

[hbos, 2015/11/27 14:43:43]

I expect it's "trustworthy" unless there is a bug. I added an RTC_CHECKs to
ensure that it's not negative and can't overflow.

+      ++fragments_count;
+    }
+  }
+  if (encoded_image->_size < required_size) {

[palmer, 2015/11/26 01:30:37]

If |required_size| overflowed, this condition may evaluate to false, but that
could be incorrect.

[hbos, 2015/11/27 14:43:43]

Now it won't overflow and we've validated pNalLengthInByte in calculating
|required_size|.

+    // Increase buffer size. Allocate enough to hold an unencoded image, this
+    // should be more than enough to hold any encoded data of future frames of
+    // the same size (avoiding possible future reallocation due to variations in

+    encoded_image->_size = CalcBufferSize(
+        VideoType::kI420, frame.width(), frame.height());
+    if (encoded_image->_size < required_size) {
+      // Encoded data > unencoded data, wtf? Allocate required bytes.
+      LOG(LS_WARNING) << "Encoding produced more bytes than the original image "

+      encoded_image->_size = required_size;
+    }
+    encoded_image->_buffer = new uint8_t[encoded_image->_size];
+    encoded_image_buffer->reset(encoded_image->_buffer);
+  }
+
+  // Iterate layers and NAL units, note each NAL unit as a fragment and copy
+  // the data to |encoded_image->_buffer|.
+  const uint8_t kStartCode[4] = {0, 0, 0, 1};
+  frag_header->VerifyAndAllocateFragmentationHeader(fragments_count);
+  size_t frag_i = 0;
+  encoded_image->_length = 0;
+  for (int iLayer = 0; iLayer < info->iLayerNum; ++iLayer) {

[stefan-webrtc, 2015/10/01 13:13:52]

I'd prefer if you rename all the camelCase variables here and below. And remove
"i" in front of them.

[hbos, 2015/11/27 14:43:43]

Done.

+    const SLayerBSInfo& layerInfo = info->sLayerInfo[iLayer];
+    // Iterate NAL units making up this layer, noting fragments.
+    size_t iLayerLen = 0;
+    for (int iNal = 0; iNal < layerInfo.iNalCount; ++iNal, ++frag_i) {
+      RTC_DCHECK_EQ(layerInfo.pBsBuf[iLayerLen+0], kStartCode[0]);
+      RTC_DCHECK_EQ(layerInfo.pBsBuf[iLayerLen+1], kStartCode[1]);
+      RTC_DCHECK_EQ(layerInfo.pBsBuf[iLayerLen+2], kStartCode[2]);
+      RTC_DCHECK_EQ(layerInfo.pBsBuf[iLayerLen+3], kStartCode[3]);
+      frag_header->fragmentationOffset[frag_i] =
+          encoded_image->_length + iLayerLen + sizeof(kStartCode);

[palmer, 2015/11/26 01:30:37]

I suspect this expression could overflow, and lines 107 – 109 as well.

[hbos, 2015/11/27 14:43:43]

Now that we've ensured |required_size| won't overflow, which is the sum of all
the bytes that we're copying (pNalLengthInBytes), overflow in this code should
be impossible.

+      frag_header->fragmentationLength[frag_i] =
+          layerInfo.pNalLengthInByte[iNal] - sizeof(kStartCode);
+      iLayerLen += layerInfo.pNalLengthInByte[iNal];
+    }
+    // Copy the entire layer's data (including start codes).
+    memcpy(encoded_image->_buffer + encoded_image->_length,
+           layerInfo.pBsBuf,
+           iLayerLen * sizeof(unsigned char));

[palmer, 2015/11/26 01:30:37]

Note that sizeof(/* anything */ char) is, by definition, 1.

Shouldn't |iLayerLen| be the same as |required_len|, at this point?

[hbos, 2015/11/27 14:43:43]

Not if there are multiple layers. Removed sizeof(unsigned char).

+    encoded_image->_length += iLayerLen;

[palmer, 2015/11/26 01:30:37]

This could overflow.

[hbos, 2015/11/27 14:43:43]

Not anymore, see other comment.
