[patch] 9p: strlen() doesn't count the terminator

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This is an off by one bug because strlen() doesn't count the NULL
terminator.  We strcpy() addr into a fixed length array of size
UNIX_PATH_MAX later on.

The addr variable is the name of the device being mounted.
