[PATCH] Prevent buffer overflows when path is too long

From: Antoine Pelisse <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:59:19
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

Some buffers created with PATH_MAX length are not checked when being
written, and can overflow if PATH_MAX is not big enough to hold the
path.

Some of the use-case are probably impossible to reach, and the program
dies if the path looks too long. When it would be possible for the user
to use a longer path, simply use strbuf to build it.
