[PATCH net-next 4/6] net/netfilter: replace deprecated strcpy with strscpy

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

 



The deprecated helper strcpy() performs no bounds checking on the
destination buffer. This could result in linear overflows beyond
the end of the buffer, leading to all kinds of misbehaviors.
The safe replacement is strscpy() [1].
