It would be nice to audit and improve the security of ScummVM's code, especially with respect to validation of input (e.g. configuration file, savegame and game datafile loading). | |||
Apart from the ScummVM base, GUI, common and platform specific save/loading code, this would require individual work on each engine's save/load and resource loading code to assess if any issues exist and what improvements can be made without causing regressions. It would have the side effect of reducing bug reports of crashes which turn out to be due to corrupted game datafiles or savegames. | |||
