Subject: [PATCH] arch: s390: appldata: using strncpy() instead of sprintf()
Date: Mon, 27 May 2013 10:59:19 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <51A2CC07.5010100@asianux.com> (raw)
'buf[2]' is 2 bytes length, and sprintf() will append '\0' at the end
of string "?\n", so original implementation is memory overflow.
Need use strncpy() instead of sprintf().
