Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ocfs2: Replace deprecated strcpy with strscpy
Date: Tue, 18 Nov 2025 19:53:45 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251118185345.132411-3-thorsten.blum@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251118185345.132411-2-thorsten.blum@linux.dev>
strcpy() has been deprecated [1] because it performs no bounds checking
on the destination buffer, which can lead to buffer overflows. Replace
it with the safer strscpy(), and copy directly into '->rf_signature'
instead of using the start of the struct as the destination buffer.
