Package: xdkcal
Version: 0.9d-2.2
Severity: normal
Hi,
While scanning some packages I found the following piece of code which leads
to a buffer overflow when an overly long HOME env var is used.
Affected code:
> FILE *init_file(char *mode)
> {
> char file[512];
> FILE *fp;
>
> strcpy(file,getenv("HOME"));
Cheers,
