Subject: [PATCH] samples: Replace strlcpy() with strscpy()
Date: Thu, 16 Nov 2023 11:15:10 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231116191510.work.550-kees@kernel.org> (raw)
strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first. This read may exceed
the destination size limit. This is both inefficient and can lead
to linear read overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated[1].
Additionally, it returns the size of the source string, not the
resulting size of the destination string. In an effort to remove strlcpy()
completely[2], replace strlcpy() here with strscpy().
