[Samba] string overflow in safe_strcpy

Corey Spalding Thu, 24 Jun 2004 12:06:32 -0700

I recently upgraded both of my samba servers (mirrors of each other) to 3.0.4, my log files now fill with the following messages (hundred lines per day):

Jun 24 13:55:33 Clyde smbd[8597]: [2004/06/24 13:55:33, 0] lib/util_str.c:safe_strcpy_fn(602) Jun 24 13:55:33 Clyde smbd[8597]: ERROR: string overflow by 1 (9 - 8) in safe_strcpy [LIBRA~V$.DOC] Jun 24 14:20:34 Clyde smbd[8597]: [2004/06/24 14:20:34, 0] lib/util_str.c:safe_strcpy_fn(602) Jun 24 14:20:34 Clyde smbd[8597]: ERROR: string overflow by 1 (11 - 10) in safe_strcpy [Config.pol.bak]

The messages appear when I'm browsing any share setup on either server.

Heres the smb.conf from the backup server.

       valid users = cspalding, mcaley, lynn, billy
       admin users = cspalding, mcaley, corey
       write list = billy, @billy

[office]
       path = /usr2/office

Any ideas how to get rid of this error? Its more of a nuisance that anything else at the moment.
