Any plan to update for zlib 1.2.12(released on March 27, 2022)?

[gildor2]

Done, made a new release.

I've downloaded the new zlib release, its code is not buildable at the moment for Windows/Winapi DLL build. Windows/Cdecl build is okay. Tested with provided Visual Studio solution, the same error appears there too - so, there's a bug in zlib code itself. I'll wait for the update.

Just for reference, errors are looking like this:

../zlib/crc32.c(1089): error C2708: 'crc32_combine64': actual parameters length in bytes differs from previous call or reference
../zlib/crc32.c(1072): note: see declaration of 'crc32_combine64'
../zlib/crc32.c(1106): error C2708: 'crc32_combine_gen64': actual parameters length in bytes differs from previous call or reference
../zlib/crc32.c(1093): note: see declaration of 'crc32_combine_gen64'
../zlib/crc32.c(1110): error C2373: 'crc32_combine_op': redefinition; different type modifiers
...\zlib.h(1768): note: see declaration of 'crc32_combine_op'

@gildor2: Thanks for your update!

Have you proposed your patch in upstream?

[gildor2]

Yep, a few years ago
madler/zlib#231

Looks like zlib will make a new release version.
Please make new release
I'll wait for your build when zlib releases new version.

BTW I'm not tracking zlib releases myself, so if you'll notice new commits/release there, just let me know. I've already made some changes locally to support more modern Visual Studio versions (there were many more errors building the code), but the mentioned problem comes from original repo.

@madler has done the new build, the 1.2.13 has been released with the CVE-2022-37434 fix.

I see :/
