Comment Comment by heinrich5991 The shown C code has a buffer overflow vulnerability: #include <string.h> #include <stdlib.h> char *add_domain_name(char *source) { const size_t size = 1024; char *dest = malloc(size+1); strncpy(dest, source, size); strncat(dest, "@example.com", size); return dest; } `strncat` takes as a third parameter the maximum length of the appended string. strncat(dest, "@example.com", size - strlen(dest)); would be correct. parent heinrich5991 6 years ago
