Subject: [PATCH 1/3] ecryptfs: Replace strcpy with strscpy in ecryptfs_set_default_crypt_stat_vals
Date: Sat, 13 Dec 2025 12:04:50 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251213110502.302950-2-thorsten.blum@linux.dev> (raw)

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().
