patch 9.0.1969: [security] buffer-overflow in trunc_string()v9.0.1969
Problem: buffer-overflow in trunc_string() Solution: Add NULL at end of buffer Currently trunc_string() assumes that when the string is too long, buf[e-1] will always be writeable. But that assumption may not always be true. The condition currently looks like this else if (e + 3 < buflen) [...] else { // can't fit in the "...", just truncate it buf[e - 1] = NUL; } but this means, we may run into the last else clause with e still being larger than buflen. So a buffer overflow occurs. So instead of using `buf[e - 1]`, let's just always truncate at `buf[buflen - 1]` which should always be writable. Signed-off-by: Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org>
