Fedora 33: BROTLI 1.0.9 Critical Update for Buffer Overflow

Brotli is a generic-purpose lossless compression algorithm that compresses

data using a combination of a modern variant of the LZ77 algorithm, Huffman

coding and 2nd order context modeling, with a compression ratio comparable

to the best currently available general-purpose compression methods.

It is similar in speed with deflate but offers more dense compression.
