Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] app/test: fix sprintf with strlcat
Date: Wed, 13 Mar 2019 11:07:23 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1552475243-16215-1-git-send-email-pallantlax.poornima@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <y>

sprintf function is not secure as it doesn't check the length of string.
More secure function strlcat is used.

Fixes: 727909c592 ("app/test: introduce dynamic commands list")
Cc: stable@dpdk.org

Signed-off-by: Pallantla Poornima <pallantlax.poornima@intel.com>

v2: Used strlcat to avoid buffer overflow.
