Subject: topology: Fix strcat() to uninitialized memory in add_define()
Date: Thu,  7 Nov 2024 13:09:56 +0100 (CET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241107120956.7483FF8013D@alsa1.perex.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1730981394094357252-webhooks-bot@alsa-project.org>

alsa-project/alsa-utils pull request #277 was opened from rfvirgil:

If *defs == NULL the realloc() will be a simple malloc() and return a pointer to uninitialized memory. Doing a strcat() to this is bad, so in that case strcpy() the string into the newly allocated buffer.

This fixes the buffer overflow bug, such as:

*** buffer overflow detected ***: terminated
Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.
