Subject: [PATCH v3] dns_resolver: assure that dns_query() result is null-terminated
Date: Sat,  7 Jun 2014 23:57:25 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1402178245-8076-1-git-send-email-manuel.schoelling@gmx.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1402167681-24676-1-git-send-email-manuel.schoelling@gmx.de>

dns_query() credulously assumes that keys are null-terminated and
returns a copy of a memory block that is off by one.
