-Subject: [PATCH] Using snprintf which honors the buffers size and guarantees
- null termination. (Closes: #1601)
-
-As strcpy may overflow the resulting buffer:
-
-flo@p5:~$ /tmp/f/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_pgsql -d "$(seq 1 10000)"
-*** buffer overflow detected ***: terminated
-Aborted
-
-I would propose to change the code rather like this, using snprintf
-which honors the buffers size and guarantees null termination.
