[PATCH net-next 6/6] net/ipv4: net: prefer strscpy over strcpy

From: Hongbo Li <lihongbo22@huawei.com>
Date: 2024-08-27 11:27:37
Also in: linux-hams, netfilter-devel
Subsystem: networking [general], networking [ipv4/ipv6], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, David Ahern, Ido Schimmel, Linus Torvalds

The deprecated helper strcpy() performs no bounds checking on the
destination buffer. This could result in linear overflows beyond
the end of the buffer, leading to all kinds of misbehaviors.
The safe replacement is strscpy() [1].
