PROFILE

Jorge Barredo Ferreira

Worked on the libsdl-org/SDL_image repository to enhance the stability and safety of image loading routines, focusing on formats such as LBM, XCF, and TGA. Applied C programming expertise to address memory management and buffer overflow risks by introducing strict bounds checks, input validation, and error handling throughout the codebase. Improvements included rejecting invalid image dimensions, enforcing palette constraints, and adding protections against null pointers and malformed input. These targeted bug fixes reduced the likelihood of heap-buffer-overflow and undefined behavior, resulting in more robust image processing for downstream applications. The work demonstrated careful attention to software debugging and defensive coding practices.
