This reduces the attack surface of local file-system
information leaking.
It prevents the existing exploit leading to an information leak. As
well as similar hypothetical attacks.
Leaks of information from files and symlinks ending in common multimedia extensions
are still possible. But files with sensitive information like private keys and passwords
generally do not use common multimedia filename extensions.
It does not stop leaks via remote addresses in the LAN.
The existing exploit depends on a specific decoder as well.
It does appear though that the exploit should be possible with any decoder.
The problem is that as long as sensitive information gets into the decoder,
the output of the decoder becomes sensitive as well.
The only obvious solution is to prevent access to sensitive information. Or to
disable hls or possibly some of its feature. More complex solutions like
checking the path to limit access to only subdirectories of the hls path may
work as an alternative. But such solutions are fragile and tricky to implement
portably and would not stop every possible attack nor would they work with all
valid hls files.
Developers have expressed their dislike / objected to disabling hls by default as well
as disabling hls with local files. There also where objections against restricting
remote url file extensions. This here is a less robust but also lower
inconvenience solution.
It can be applied stand alone or together with other solutions.
limiting the check to local files was suggested by nevcairiel
This recommits the security fix without the author name joke which was
originally requested by Nicolas.

Some (de)muxers open additional files beyond the main IO context.
Currently, they call avio_open() directly, which prevents the caller
from using custom IO for such streams.
This commit adds callbacks to AVFormatContext that default to
avio_open2()/avio_close(), but can be overridden by the caller. All
muxers and demuxers using AVIO are switched to using those callbacks
instead of calling avio_open()/avio_close() directly.
(de)muxers that use the URLProtocol layer directly instead of AVIO
remain unconverted for now. This should be fixed in later commits.
Without EXT-X-MAP support we miss the first bytes of some streams.
These streams worked by luck before byte-ranged segment support was added in

Fixes ticket #4797.
Commit ad701326b43078b90 ("avformat/hls: open playlists immediately when
AVDISCARD_ALL is dropped") inadvertently caused first_packet to never be
cleared, causing select_cur_seq_no() to not use the specific code for
live streams.
In practice this means that when the user selects a different audio
track during live stream (i.e. non-VOD) playback, there may be some
additional delay as the code might select an incorrect segment at first,
and we have to wait for video to catch audio (if too late segment was
selected) or to download more following audio segments (if too early
segment was selected).
Fix that by restoring the zeroing of first_packet.
This will give incorrect results in some cases due to not parsing segments
separately, so it currently requires -strict experimental.

If there is no #EXT-X-BYTERANGE specified, there is no need to seek.
Seeking fails anyway for rtmp, because this protocol does not support
url_seek.
This fixes CNN.m3u from trac ticket 4797 (i.e. Debian bug #798189).

Broken by commit ba12ba859aabfa7153ba397d869db13acdaba340. This only
happens with HLS streams which use encryption and require preserving
cookies sent by the server.
Fixes trac issue #4846.
Comment was previously slightly incorrect.
Also, it was placed in the wrong location.

Apparently, some live streams can delete segments too early, maybe
because the client is too far behind. In this case, it's better to skip
the segment, instead of returning EOF. (Yes, the HLS demuxer actually
returns AVERROR_EOF if opening the segment returns a 404 HTTP error.)

SAMPLE-AES encryption is not commonly used yet, but without this patch
ffmpeg is thinking that the hls segments are not encrypted which

ffurl_seek() will not work even when it should be a no-op, so do not

Since we are basically seeking the AVIOContext under the subdemuxer, we
need to flush the subdemuxer to avoid old packets from being read from
the packet queue after the seek.
