     - Detection of simple data transform function "x"

     - Fixed an invalid read and memory leak when parsing corrupt file space
       info messages
 
-        When the corrupt file from CVE-2020-10810 was parsed by the library,
-        the code that imports the version 0 file space info object header
-        message to the version 1 struct could read past the buffer read from
-        the disk, causing an invalid memory read. Not catching this error would
-        cause downstream errors that eventually resulted in a previously
-        allocated buffer to be unfreed when the library shut down. In builds
-        where the free lists are in use, this could result in an infinite loop
-        and SIGABRT when the library shuts down.
