commit 20f9de9b5f704cec55df92406a50bcbcfca96acd Author: Mark Wielaard Date: Sun Oct 14 16:45:48 2018 +0200 libdwfl: Sanity check partial core file data reads. There were two issues when reading note data from a core file. We didn't check if the data we already had in a buffer was big enough. And if we did get the data, we should check if we got everything, or just a part of the data. https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23752 Signed-off-by: Mark Wielaard diff --git a/libdwfl/dwfl_segment_report_module.c b/libdwfl/dwfl_segment_report_module.c index 36e5c82..8749884 100644 --- a/libdwfl/dwfl_segment_report_module.c +++ b/libdwfl/dwfl_segment_report_module.c @@ -1,5 +1,5 @@ /* Sniff out modules from ELF headers visible in memory segments. - Copyright (C) 2008-2012, 2014, 2015 Red Hat, Inc. + Copyright (C) 2008-2012, 2014, 2015, 2018 Red Hat, Inc.
