Major parts of liblzma are based on code written by Igor Pavlov,

|
|
|
specifically the LZMA SDK <https://7-zip.org/sdk.html>. Without
|
2009-07-19 10:14:20 +00:00
|
|
|
this code, XZ Utils wouldn't exist.

Special author: Jia Tan was a co-maintainer in 2022-2024. He and
|
|
|
|
the team behind him inserted a backdoor (CVE-2024-3094) into
|
|
|
|
XZ Utils 5.6.0 and 5.6.1 releases. He suddenly disappeared when
|
|
|
|
this was discovered.
