HIDAPI is a multi-platform library which allows an application to interface with USB and Bluetooth HID-Class devices on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X. On Windows, a DLL is built. On other platforms (and optionally on Windows), the single source file can simply be dropped into a target application. HIDAPI has four back-ends: * Windows (using hid.dll) * Linux/hidraw (using the Kernel's hidraw driver) * Linux/libusb (using libusb-1.0) * Mac (using IOHidManager) This package includes only the libusb backend.
Binary packages can be installed with the high-level tool pkgin (which can be installed with pkg_add) or pkg_add(1) (installed by default). The NetBSD packages collection is also designed to permit easy installation from source.
The pkg_admin audit command locates any installed package which has been mentioned in security advisories as having vulnerabilities.
Please note the vulnerabilities database might not be fully accurate, and not every bug is exploitable with every configuration.
