Created attachment 768300 [details] fix buf overflow in *toname() Description of problem: uidtoname() and gidtoname() have possible buffer overflows. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): tree-1.6.0-7.fc19.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. chgrp 111111 somefile.txt 2. tree -g . Actual results: *** buffer overflow detected ***: tree terminated Expected results: the tree listing Additional info: I'll attach a patch. A second or more set of eyeballs would be good. (I hit this while browsing the fedora iso... there's a squash file in there that has a huge gid.)
Thanks. I only changed the snprintf calls to use sizeof(buf).
