> which will cause the "CSS keys cache folder" name for the DVD to be generated
> using raw memory contents. This will lead to a bug when libdvdcss often will
> not see the folder with previously cached keys and on the next DVD open
> attempt will retry the brute-force keys retrieval.

>
> libdvdcss.c: for the case when DVD is encrypted but no ioctl is available
> (which is usual for encrypted DVDs copied via dd /dev/cdrom /path/to/file )
>
> css.c: for the case when key decryption fails, the fallback is done, but disk
> key is not zeroed
> ==============================================

While we are talking about libdvdnav, this patch has never been reviewed.

Just my 2cent's ping ;)
