I have built and tested several vanilla libssh2 versions with the mentioned example: versions from 1.4.3 to 1.6.0 produces many "uninitialized data" warnings. Release 1.7.0 does not produce warnings or errors (just this one example).
It appears that distros have patched most of these issues in their maintained versions so I could report it for releases that haven't yet upgraded to 1.7. - Jarkko On Wed, Sep 6, 2017 at 11:54 AM Daniel Stenberg <dan...@haxx.se> wrote: > On Wed, 6 Sep 2017, Jarkko Palviainen via libssh2-devel wrote: > > > Can you comment whether this is a bug in the example, in libssh2 1.4.3 or > > false positive report?
