It located 2 improper uses where our homebrew functions failed to identify buffer overruns during the compile. I imagine it's likely to find similar in the rest of the bases. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/mudstrlcpy-and-mudstrlcat-5007/&p=24356#p24356 Sat, 18 Jan 2025 16:53:59 CST SmaugFUSS nobody@example.com (Samson) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/mudstrlcpy-and-mudstrlcat-5007/&p=24355#p24355 At some point in the past, a huge effort was expended to incorporate support for strlcpy and strlcat into all of the FUSS codebases (and AFKMud). Since these functions, at the time, were only available on OpenBSD systems, everyone else essentially had to hand roll their own versions. Which we did in the form of mudstrlcpy and mudstrlcat. Fast forward to the modern age and apparently the strlcpy and strlcat functions were formally accepted into GlibC 2.38 in 2023.

Specifically with board->board[x][y] = 0; I can't figure out why that would be the case. The compiler doesn't flag it, and it doesn't set off the sanitization code either. [code]static void init_board( GAME_BOARD_DATA * board ) { int x, y; for( x = 0; x < 8; x++ ) for( y = 0; y < 8; y++ ) board->board[x][y] = 0; board->bo https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/array-out-of-bounds---5005/&p=24346#p24346 Tue, 14 Jan 2025 22:00:44 CST SmaugFUSS nobody@example.com (Samson) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/timeupdate-5003/&p=24343#p24343 yeah I noticed lol. I only seen it because I spent all day adding it into LOP and then I was looking around to see maybe where it came from found the snippet for it and while reading it I was like blah i don't feel like getting permission so I did a difference of my code and the one i last released and added all the changes not weather related back in lol just finished doing all that. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/timeupdate-5003/&p=24343#p24343 Sun, 12 Jan 2025 21:53:08 CST SmaugFUSS nobody@example.com (Remcon) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/timeupdate-5003/&p=24342#p24342 Indeed, either way, good catch. I bet that's why we left it like it was at the time that code was added to the base. It's not native Smaug. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/timeupdate-5003/&p=24342#p24342 Sun, 12 Jan 2025 21:44:22 CST SmaugFUSS nobody@example.com (Samson)
