Description Florian Weimer 2013-10-22 15:07:54 UTC
Shifting ints by 32 bits (bits == 0) may not give the expected result in xioparsenetwork_ip4() in xio-ip4.c:
      netmask_in->s_addr = htonl((0xffffffff << (32-bits)));
xioparsenetwork_ip6() has a similar problem (with 128).

Such out-of-range shifts are undefined and the outcome differs on different architectures.

Comment 2 Gerhard 2014-03-10 21:07:25 UTC
Has been fixed in upstream release 1.7.2.4
