>Description:
Version 1.34 of /usr/src/sbin/dump/main.c changed the call of strncat to strlcat, but it didn't change the size parameter: Version 1.33 used (line 602)
(void)strncat(rawbuf, "/r", MAXPATHLEN - 1 - strlen(rawbuf));
(void)strncat(rawbuf, dp + 1, MAXPATHLEN - 1 - strlen(rawbuf));
Now it reads:
(void)strlcat(rawbuf, "/r", MAXPATHLEN - 1 - strlen(rawbuf));
(void)strlcat(rawbuf, dp + 1, MAXPATHLEN - 1 - strlen(rawbuf));
>How-To-Repeat:
Nothing to repeat
>Fix:
Change the lines in question to:
(void)strlcat(rawbuf, "/r", MAXPATHLEN);
(void)strlcat(rawbuf, dp + 1, MAXPATHLEN);
And also the line with strlcpy (3 line previously) could be changed:
(void)strlcpy(rawbuf, cp, MAXPATHLEN);
