<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" name="section-1" href="#section-1">1</a>. Introduction</span>
This document addresses minor issues that were discovered in the
reference implementation of the Opus codec that serves as the
specification in <a href="./rfc6716">RFC 6716</a> [<a href="./rfc6716" title="&quot;Definition of the Opus Audio Codec&quot;">RFC6716</a>]. Only issues affecting the
decoder are listed here. An up-to-date implementation of the Opus
encoder can be found at <a href="http://opus-codec.org/">http://opus-codec.org/</a>. The updated
specification remains fully compatible with the original
specification.
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" name="section-2" href="#section-2">2</a>. Terminology</span>
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in <a href="./rfc2119">RFC 2119</a> [<a href="./rfc2119" title="&quot;Key words for use in RFCs to Indicate Requirement Levels&quot;">RFC2119</a>].
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" name="section-3" href="#section-3">3</a>. Stereo State Reset in SILK</span>
The reference implementation does not reinitialize the stereo state
during a mode switch. The old stereo memory can produce a brief
impulse (i.e. single sample) in the decoded audio. This can be fixed
by changing silk/dec_API.c at line 72:
<span class="grey">Valin &amp; Vos Expires April 24, 2017 [Page 2]</span></pre>
<hr class='noprint' style='width: 96ex;' align='left'/><!--NewPage--><pre class='newpage'><a name="page-3" id="page-3" href="#page-3" class="invisible"> </a>

for( n = 0; n &lt; DECODER_NUM_CHANNELS; n++ ) {
ret = silk_init_decoder( &amp;channel_state[ n ] );
}
+ silk_memset(&amp;((silk_decoder *)decState)-&gt;sStereo, 0,
+ sizeof(((silk_decoder *)decState)-&gt;sStereo));
+ /* Not strictly needed, but it's cleaner that way */
+ ((silk_decoder *)decState)-&gt;prev_decode_only_middle = 0;
return ret;
}
This change affects the normative part of the decoder, although the
amount of change is too small to make a significant impact on
testvectors.
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" name="section-4" href="#section-4">4</a>. Parsing of the Opus Packet Padding</span>
It was discovered that some invalid packets of very large size could
trigger an out-of-bounds read in the Opus packet parsing code
responsible for padding. This is due to an integer overflow if the
signaled padding exceeds 2^31-1 bytes (the actual packet may be
smaller). The code can be fixed by applying the following changes at
line 596 of src/opus_decoder.c:
/* Padding flag is bit 6 */
if (ch&amp;0x40)
{
- int padding=0;
int p;
do {
if (len&lt;=0)
return OPUS_INVALID_PACKET;
p = *data++;
len--;
- padding += p==255 ? 254: p;
+ len -= p==255 ? 254: p;
} while (p==255);
- len -= padding;
}
This packet parsing issue is limited to reading memory up to about 60
kB beyond the compressed buffer. This can only be triggered by a
compressed packet more than about 16 MB long, so it's not a problem
for RTP. In theory, it _could_ crash a file decoder (e.g. Opus in
Ogg) if the memory just after the incoming packet is out-of-range,
but our attempts to trigger such a crash in a production application
built using an affected version of the Opus decoder failed.

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" name="section-5" href="#section-5">5</a>. Resampler buffer</span>
The SILK resampler had the following issues:
1. The calls to memcpy() were using sizeof(opus_int32), but the type
of the local buffer was opus_int16.
2. Because the size was wrong, this potentially allowed the source
and destination regions of the memcpy() to overlap. We _believe_
that nSamplesIn is at least fs_in_khZ, which is at least 8.
Since RESAMPLER_ORDER_FIR_12 is only 8, that should not be a
problem once the type size is fixed.
3. The size of the buffer used RESAMPLER_MAX_BATCH_SIZE_IN, but the
data stored in it was actually _twice_ the input batch size
(nSamplesIn&lt;&lt;1).
The fact that the code never produced any error in testing (including
when run under the Valgrind memory debugger), suggests that in
practice the batch sizes are reasonable enough that none of the
issues above was ever a problem. However, proving that is non-
obvious.
The code can be fixed by applying the following changes to line 70 of
silk/resampler_private_IIR_FIR.c:
)
{
silk_resampler_state_struct *S = \
(silk_resampler_state_struct *)SS;

RESAMPLER_ORDER_FIR_12 ];

RESAMPLER_ORDER_FIR_12 ];
/* Copy buffered samples to start of buffer */
- silk_memcpy( buf, S-&gt;sFIR, RESAMPLER_ORDER_FIR_12 \
* sizeof( opus_int32 ) );
+ silk_memcpy( buf, S-&gt;sFIR, RESAMPLER_ORDER_FIR_12 \

/* Iterate over blocks of frameSizeIn input samples */
index_increment_Q16 = S-&gt;invRatio_Q16;

out = silk_resampler_private_IIR_FIR_INTERPOL( out, \

in += nSamplesIn;
inLen -= nSamplesIn;

- silk_memcpy( buf, &amp;buf[ nSamplesIn &lt;&lt; 1 ], \

Note: due to RFC formatting conventions, lines exceeding the column
width in the patch above are split using a backslash character. The
backslashes at the end of a line and the white space at the beginning
of the following line are not part of the patch. A properly

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" name="section-6" href="#section-6">6</a>. Integer wrap-around in inverse gain computation</span>
It was discovered through decoder fuzzing that some bitstreams could
produce integer values exceeding 32-bits in
LPC_inverse_pred_gain_QA(), causing a wrap-around. Although the
error is harmless in practice, the C standard considers the behavior
as undefined, so the following patch to line 87 of silk/
LPC_inv_pred_gain.c detects values that do not fit in a 32-bit
integer and considers the corresponding filters unstable:

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" name="section-7" href="#section-7">7</a>. Integer wrap-around in LSF decoding</span>
It was discovered -- also from decoder fuzzing -- that an integer
wrap-around could occur when decoding line spectral frequency
coefficients from extreme bitstreams. The end result of the wrap-
around is an illegal read access on the stack, which the authors do
not believe is exploitable but should nonetheless be fixed. The
following patch to line 137 of silk/NLSF_stabilize.c prevents the
problem:
/* Keep delta_min distance between the NLSFs */
for( i = 1; i &lt; L; i++ )
- NLSF_Q15[i] = silk_max_int( NLSF_Q15[i], \
NLSF_Q15[i-1] + NDeltaMin_Q15[i] );
+ NLSF_Q15[i] = silk_max_int( NLSF_Q15[i], \
silk_ADD_SAT16( NLSF_Q15[i-1], NDeltaMin_Q15[i] ) );
/* Last NLSF should be no higher than 1 - NDeltaMin[L] */
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" name="section-8" href="#section-8">8</a>. Cap on Band Energy</span>
On extreme bit-streams, it is possible for log-domain band energy
levels to exceed the maximum single-precision floating point value
once converted to a linear scale. This would later cause the decoded
values to be NaN, possibly causing problems in the software using the
PCM values. This can be avoided with the following patch to line 552

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" name="section-9" href="#section-9">9</a>. Hybrid Folding</span>
When encoding in hybrid mode at low bitrate, we sometimes only have
enough bits to code a single CELT band (8 - 9.6 kHz). When that
happens, the second band (CELT band 18, from 9.6 to 12 kHz) cannot
use folding because it is wider than the amount already coded, and
falls back to LCG noise. Because it can also happen on transients
(e.g. stops), it can cause audible pre-echo.
To address the issue, we change the folding behavior so that it is
never forced to fall back to LCG due to the first band not containing
enough coefficients to fold onto the second band. This is achieved
by simply repeating part of the first band in the folding of the
second band. This changes the code in celt/bands.c around line 1237:

The fix does not impact compatibility, because the improvement does
not depend on the encoder doing anything special. There is also no
reasonable way for an encoder to use the original behavior to improve
quality over the proposed change.

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" name="section-10" href="#section-10">10</a>. Downmix to Mono</span>
The last issue is not strictly a bug, but it is an issue that has
been reported when downmixing an Opus decoded stream to mono, whether
this is done inside the decoder or as a post-processing step on the
stereo decoder output. Opus intensity stereo allows optionally
coding the two channels 180-degrees out of phase on a per-band basis.
This provides better stereo quality than forcing the two channels to
be in phase, but when the output is downmixed to mono, the energy in
the affected bands is cancelled sometimes resulting in audible
artefacts.
As a work-around for this issue, the decoder MAY choose not to apply
the 180-degree phase shift when the output is meant to be downmixed
(inside or outside of the decoder).
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" name="section-11" href="#section-11">11</a>. New Test Vectors</span>
Changes in <a href="#section-9">Section 9</a> and <a href="#section-10">Section 10</a> have sufficient impact on the
testvectors to make them fail. For this reason, this document also
updates the Opus test vectors. The new test vectors now include two
decoded outputs for the same bitstream. The outputs with suffix 'm'
do not apply the CELT 180-degree phase shift as allowed in
<a href="#section-10">Section 10</a>, while the outputs without the suffix do. An
implementation is compliant as long as it passes either set of
vectors.
In addition, any Opus implementation that passes the original test
vectors from <a href="./rfc6716">RFC 6716</a> [<a href="./rfc6716" title="&quot;Definition of the Opus Audio Codec&quot;">RFC6716</a>] is still compliant with the Opus
specification. However, newer implementations SHOULD be based on the
new test vectors rather than the old ones.

1. Introduction
This document addresses minor issues that were discovered in the
reference implementation of the Opus codec. Unlike most IETF
specifications, RFC 6716 [RFC6716] defines Opus in terms of a
normative reference decoder implementation rather than from the
associated text description. Appendix A of that RFC includes the
reference decoder implementation, which is why only issues affecting
the decoder are listed here. An up-to-date implementation of the
Opus encoder can be found at <https://opus-codec.org/>.
Some of the changes in this document update normative behavior in a
way that requires new test vectors. Only the C implementation is
affected, not the English text of the specification. This
specification remains fully compatible with RFC 6716 [RFC6716].
Note: Due to RFC formatting conventions, lines exceeding the column
width in the patch are split using a backslash character. The
backslashes at the end of a line and the white space at the beginning
of the following line are not part of the patch. Referenced line
numbers are approximations. A properly formatted patch including all
changes is available at <https://www.ietf.org/proceedings/98/slides/
materials-98-codec-opus-update-00.patch> and has a SHA-1 hash of
029e3aa88fc342c91e67a21e7bfbc9458661cd5f.

2. Terminology
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
"OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in
BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
capitals, as shown here.
3. Stereo State Reset in SILK
The reference implementation does not reinitialize the stereo state
during a mode switch. The old stereo memory can produce a brief
impulse (i.e., single sample) in the decoded audio. This can be
fixed by changing silk/dec_API.c around line 72:
<CODE BEGINS>
for( n = 0; n < DECODER_NUM_CHANNELS; n++ ) {
ret = silk_init_decoder( &channel_state[ n ] );
}
+ silk_memset(&((silk_decoder *)decState)->sStereo, 0,
+ sizeof(((silk_decoder *)decState)->sStereo));
+ /* Not strictly needed, but it's cleaner that way */
+ ((silk_decoder *)decState)->prev_decode_only_middle = 0;
return ret;
}
<CODE ENDS>
This change affects the normative output of the decoder, but the
amount of change is within the tolerance and is too small to make the
test vector check fail.
Valin & Vos Standards Track [Page 3]
RFC 8251 Opus Update October 2017
4. Parsing of the Opus Packet Padding
It was discovered that some invalid packets of a very large size
could trigger an out-of-bounds read in the Opus packet parsing code
responsible for padding. This is due to an integer overflow if the
signaled padding exceeds 2^31-1 bytes (the actual packet may be
smaller). The code can be fixed by decrementing the (signed) len
value, instead of incrementing a separate padding counter. This is
done by applying the following changes around line 596 of
src/opus_decoder.c:
<CODE BEGINS>
/* Padding flag is bit 6 */
if (ch&0x40)
{
- int padding=0;
int p;
do {
if (len<=0)
return OPUS_INVALID_PACKET;
p = *data++;
len--;
- padding += p==255 ? 254: p;
+ len -= p==255 ? 254: p;
} while (p==255);
- len -= padding;
}
<CODE ENDS>
This packet-parsing issue is limited to reading memory up to about 60
KB beyond the compressed buffer. This can only be triggered by a
compressed packet more than about 16 MB long, so it's not a problem
for RTP. In theory, it could crash a file decoder (e.g., Opus in
Ogg) if the memory just after the incoming packet is out of range,
but our attempts to trigger such a crash in a production application
built using an affected version of the Opus decoder failed.
5. Resampler Buffer
The SILK resampler had the following issues:
1. The calls to memcpy() were using sizeof(opus_int32), but the type
of the local buffer was opus_int16.
Valin & Vos Standards Track [Page 4]
RFC 8251 Opus Update October 2017
2. Because the size was wrong, this potentially allowed the source
and destination regions of the memcpy() to overlap on the copy
from "buf" to "buf". We believe that nSamplesIn (number of input
samples) is at least fs_in_khZ (sampling rate in kHz), which is
at least 8. Since RESAMPLER_ORDER_FIR_12 is only 8, that should
not be a problem once the type size is fixed.
3. The size of the buffer used RESAMPLER_MAX_BATCH_SIZE_IN, but the
data stored in it was actually twice the input batch size
(nSamplesIn<<1).
The code can be fixed by applying the following changes around line
78 of silk/resampler_private_IIR_FIR.c:
<CODE BEGINS>
)
{
silk_resampler_state_struct *S = \
(silk_resampler_state_struct *)SS;
opus_int32 nSamplesIn;
opus_int32 max_index_Q16, index_increment_Q16;
- opus_int16 buf[ RESAMPLER_MAX_BATCH_SIZE_IN + \
RESAMPLER_ORDER_FIR_12 ];
+ opus_int16 buf[ 2*RESAMPLER_MAX_BATCH_SIZE_IN + \
RESAMPLER_ORDER_FIR_12 ];
/* Copy buffered samples to start of buffer */
- silk_memcpy( buf, S->sFIR, RESAMPLER_ORDER_FIR_12 \
* sizeof( opus_int32 ) );
+ silk_memcpy( buf, S->sFIR, RESAMPLER_ORDER_FIR_12 \
* sizeof( opus_int16 ) );
/* Iterate over blocks of frameSizeIn input samples */
index_increment_Q16 = S->invRatio_Q16;
while( 1 ) {
nSamplesIn = silk_min( inLen, S->batchSize );
/* Upsample 2x */
silk_resampler_private_up2_HQ( S->sIIR, &buf[ \
RESAMPLER_ORDER_FIR_12 ], in, nSamplesIn );
max_index_Q16 = silk_LSHIFT32( nSamplesIn, 16 + 1 \
); /* + 1 because 2x upsampling */
out = silk_resampler_private_IIR_FIR_INTERPOL( out, \
buf, max_index_Q16, index_increment_Q16 );
in += nSamplesIn;
inLen -= nSamplesIn;
Valin & Vos Standards Track [Page 5]
RFC 8251 Opus Update October 2017
if( inLen > 0 ) {
/* More iterations to do; copy last part of \
filtered signal to beginning of buffer */
- silk_memcpy( buf, &buf[ nSamplesIn << 1 ], \
RESAMPLER_ORDER_FIR_12 * sizeof( opus_int32 ) );
+ silk_memmove( buf, &buf[ nSamplesIn << 1 ], \
RESAMPLER_ORDER_FIR_12 * sizeof( opus_int16 ) );
} else {
break;
}
}
/* Copy last part of filtered signal to the state for \
the next call */
- silk_memcpy( S->sFIR, &buf[ nSamplesIn << 1 ], \
RESAMPLER_ORDER_FIR_12 * sizeof( opus_int32 ) );
+ silk_memcpy( S->sFIR, &buf[ nSamplesIn << 1 ], \
RESAMPLER_ORDER_FIR_12 * sizeof( opus_int16 ) );
}
<CODE ENDS>
6. Integer Wrap-Around in Inverse Gain Computation
It was discovered through decoder fuzzing that some bitstreams could
produce integer values exceeding 32 bits in
LPC_inverse_pred_gain_QA(), causing a wrap-around. The C standard
considers this behavior as undefined. The following patch around
line 87 of silk/LPC_inv_pred_gain.c detects values that do not fit in
a 32-bit integer and considers the corresponding filters unstable:
<CODE BEGINS>
/* Update AR coefficient */
for( n = 0; n < k; n++ ) {
- tmp_QA = Aold_QA[ n ] - MUL32_FRAC_Q( \
Aold_QA[ k - n - 1 ], rc_Q31, 31 );
- Anew_QA[ n ] = MUL32_FRAC_Q( tmp_QA, rc_mult2 , mult2Q );
+ opus_int64 tmp64;
+ tmp_QA = silk_SUB_SAT32( Aold_QA[ n ], MUL32_FRAC_Q( \
Aold_QA[ k - n - 1 ], rc_Q31, 31 ) );
+ tmp64 = silk_RSHIFT_ROUND64( silk_SMULL( tmp_QA, \
rc_mult2 ), mult2Q);
+ if( tmp64 > silk_int32_MAX || tmp64 < silk_int32_MIN ) {
+ return 0;
+ }
+ Anew_QA[ n ] = ( opus_int32 )tmp64;
}
<CODE ENDS>
Valin & Vos Standards Track [Page 6]
RFC 8251 Opus Update October 2017
7. Integer Wrap-Around in LSF Decoding
It was discovered -- also from decoder fuzzing -- that an integer
wrap-around could occur when decoding bitstreams with extremely large
values for the high Line Spectral Frequency (LSF) parameters. The
end result of the wrap-around is an illegal read access on the stack,
which the authors do not believe is exploitable but should
nonetheless be fixed. The following patch around line 137 of silk/
NLSF_stabilize.c prevents the problem:
<CODE BEGINS>
/* Keep delta_min distance between the NLSFs */
for( i = 1; i < L; i++ )
- NLSF_Q15[i] = silk_max_int( NLSF_Q15[i], \
NLSF_Q15[i-1] + NDeltaMin_Q15[i] );
+ NLSF_Q15[i] = silk_max_int( NLSF_Q15[i], \
silk_ADD_SAT16( NLSF_Q15[i-1], NDeltaMin_Q15[i] ) );
/* Last NLSF should be no higher than 1 - NDeltaMin[L] */
<CODE ENDS>
8. Cap on Band Energy
On extreme bitstreams, it is possible for log-domain band energy
levels to exceed the maximum single-precision floating point value
once converted to a linear scale. This would later cause the decoded
values to be NaN (not a number), possibly causing problems in the
software using the PCM values. This can be avoided with the
following patch around line 552 of celt/quant_bands.c:
<CODE BEGINS>
{
opus_val16 lg = ADD16(oldEBands[i+c*m->nbEBands],
SHL16((opus_val16)eMeans[i],6));
+ lg = MIN32(QCONST32(32.f, 16), lg);
eBands[i+c*m->nbEBands] = PSHR32(celt_exp2(lg),4);
}
for (;i<m->nbEBands;i++)
<CODE ENDS>
Valin & Vos Standards Track [Page 7]
RFC 8251 Opus Update October 2017
9. Hybrid Folding
When encoding in hybrid mode at low bitrate, we sometimes only have
enough bits to code a single Constrained-Energy Lapped Transform
(CELT) band (8 - 9.6 kHz). When that happens, the second band (CELT
band 18, from 9.6 - 12 kHz) cannot use folding because it is wider
than the amount already coded and falls back to white noise. Because
it can also happen on transients (e.g., stops), it can cause audible
pre-echo.
To address the issue, we change the folding behavior so that it is
never forced to fall back to Linear Congruential Generator (LCG) due
to the first band not containing enough coefficients to fold onto the
second band. This is achieved by simply repeating part of the first
band in the folding of the second band. This changes the code in
celt/bands.c around line 1237:
<CODE BEGINS>
b = 0;
}
- if (resynth && M*eBands[i]-N >= M*eBands[start] && \
(update_lowband || lowband_offset==0))
+ if (resynth && (M*eBands[i]-N >= M*eBands[start] || \
i==start+1) && (update_lowband || lowband_offset==0))
lowband_offset = i;
+ if (i == start+1)
+ {
+ int n1, n2;
+ int offset;
+ n1 = M*(eBands[start+1]-eBands[start]);
+ n2 = M*(eBands[start+2]-eBands[start+1]);
+ offset = M*eBands[start];
+ /* Duplicate enough of the first band folding data to \
be able to fold the second band.
+ Copies no data for CELT-only mode. */
+ OPUS_COPY(&norm[offset+n1], &norm[offset+2*n1 - n2], n2-n1);
+ if (C==2)
+ OPUS_COPY(&norm2[offset+n1], &norm2[offset+2*n1 - n2], \
n2-n1);
+ }
+
tf_change = tf_res[i];
if (i>=m->effEBands)
{
<CODE ENDS>
Valin & Vos Standards Track [Page 8]
RFC 8251 Opus Update October 2017
as well as around line 1260:
<CODE BEGINS>
fold_start = lowband_offset;
while(M*eBands[--fold_start] > effective_lowband);
fold_end = lowband_offset-1;
- while(M*eBands[++fold_end] < effective_lowband+N);
+ while(++fold_end < i && M*eBands[fold_end] < \
effective_lowband+N);
x_cm = y_cm = 0;
fold_i = fold_start; do {
x_cm |= collapse_masks[fold_i*C+0];
<CODE ENDS>
The fix does not impact compatibility, because the improvement does
not depend on the encoder doing anything special. There is also no
reasonable way for an encoder to use the original behavior to improve
quality over the proposed change.
10. Downmix to Mono
The last issue is not strictly a bug, but it is an issue that has
been reported when downmixing an Opus decoded stream to mono, whether
this is done inside the decoder or as a post-processing step on the
stereo decoder output. Opus intensity stereo allows optionally
coding the two channels 180 degrees out of phase on a per-band basis.
This provides better stereo quality than forcing the two channels to
be in phase, but when the output is downmixed to mono, the energy in
the affected bands is canceled, sometimes resulting in audible
artifacts.
As a work-around for this issue, the decoder MAY choose not to apply
the 180-degree phase shift. This can be useful when downmixing to
mono inside or outside of the decoder (e.g., requested explicitly
from an API).
11. New Test Vectors
Changes in Sections 9 and 10 have sufficient impact on the test
vectors to make them fail. For this reason, this document also
updates the Opus test vectors. The new test vectors now include two
decoded outputs for the same bitstream. The outputs with suffix 'm'
do not apply the CELT 180-degree phase shift as allowed in
Section 10, while the outputs without the suffix do. An
implementation is compliant as long as it passes either set of
vectors.

RFC 8251 Opus Update October 2017
Any Opus implementation that passes either the original test vectors
from RFC 6716 [RFC6716] or one of the new sets of test vectors is
compliant with the Opus specification. However, newer
implementations SHOULD be based on the new test vectors rather than
the old ones.
The new test vectors are located at

newvectors-00.tar.gz>. The SHA-1 hashes of the test vectors are:

12. Security Considerations
This document fixes two security issues reported on Opus that affect
the reference implementation in RFC 6716 [RFC6716]: CVE-2013-0899
<https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2013-0899> and CVE-2017-0381
<https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2017-0381>. CVE-2013-0899
theoretically could have caused an information leak. The leaked
information would have gone through the decoder process before being
accessible to the attacker. The update in Section 4 fixes this.
CVE-2017-0381 could have resulted in a 16-bit out-of-bounds read from
a fixed location. The update in Section 7 fixes this. Beyond the
two fixed Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs), this document
adds no new security considerations beyond those in RFC 6716
[RFC6716].
13. IANA Considerations
This document does not require any IANA actions.
