For libvpx, I believe the only patch that isn't upstream or a backport
of a commit that is upstream is the one dealing with the stdint.h types.

For libogg, we have one Solaris-specific patch for inttypes.h that is
not upstream, and that's it.

For libvorbis, we have a Solaris-specific patch for alloca, a fix for
bug 719612 (CVE-2012-0444), which is upstream as r18151, and a fix for
bug 722924 (no CVE), which is upstream as r18166. Both of these were
released in libvorbis-1.3.3.

For Tremor, we have a similar fix for bug 719612, which is upstream in
r18152. Tremor was not affected by bug 722924. Xiph.Org does not publish
releases for Tremor.

For libtheora, we currently carry four patches (bug 468275, bug 625773,
bug 752139, and bug 752668), all of which are upstream (in r18219,
r17780, r18031, and r18268, respectively). None of these bugs affect the
most recent stable release (libtheora-1.1.1). We are actually using a
more recent (unreleased) snapshot.
