Subject: [Bug-cpio] [PATCH] fix 1-byte out-of-bounds write
Date: Tue, 26 Jan 2016 23:17:54 +0100
Other calls to cpio_safer_name_suffix seem to be safe.
* src/copyin.c (process_copy_in): Make sure that file_hdr.c_name
has at least two bytes allocated.
* src/util.c (cpio_safer_name_suffix): Document that use of this
function requires to be careful.
