>Description:
On line 270 of usr.sbin/pkg_install/lib/match.c there's a call to snprintf which uses an overlapping buffer:
snprintf(tmp, PATH_MAX, "%s/%s", tmp, CONTENTS_FNAME);
According to http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/functions/printf.html the results are undefined in the buffers overlap.
