| Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles
available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The OpenBSD
operating system is noted for its security focus and for the development
of a number of security features.Bugs and security flaws are often
caused by programmer error. A common source of error is the misuse of
the strcpy and strcat string functions in the C programming language.
There are two common alternatives, strncpy and strncat, but they can be
difficult to understand and easy to misuse, so OpenBSD developers Todd
C. Miller and Theo de Raadt designed the strlcpy and strlcat functions.
These functions are logical and easier to use, making it harder for
programmers to accidentally leave buffers unterminated or allow them to
be overflowed. |
