Name        : libmaxminddb
Product     : Fedora 41
Version     : 1.12.2
Release     : 1.fc41
URL         : https://maxmind.github.io/libmaxminddb/
Summary     : C library for reading MaxMind DB files
Description :
The libmaxminddb library provides a C library for reading MaxMind DB
files, including the GeoIP2 databases from MaxMind. This is a custom
binary format designed to facilitate fast lookups of IP addresses
while allowing for great flexibility in the type of data associated
with an address.

The MaxMind DB format is an open file format. The specification is
available at https://maxmind.github.io/MaxMind-DB/ and licensed under
the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License.

Update Information:

libmaxminddb 1.12.2
MMDB_get_entry_data_list() now always sets the passed entry_data_list parameter
to either NULL or valid memory. This makes it safe for callers to use
MMDB_free_entry_data_list() on it even in case of error. In 1.12.0
MMDB_get_entry_data_list() was changed to not set this parameter to valid memory
in additional error cases. That change caused segfaults for certain libraries
that assumed it was safe to free memory on error. Doing so was never safe, but
worked in some cases. This change makes such calls safe.
