Stack Buffer Overflow in AmigaOS C Code: How strcpy Almost Became a Backdoor

A critical stack buffer overflow vulnerability was discovered and patched in `uae_integration.c`, where an unbounded `strcpy` call allowed attackers to overwrite stack memory and potentially execute arbitrary code. The fix eliminates the unsafe string copy operation, closing a direct path to arbitrary code execution on AmigaOS/AROS systems that lack modern memory protections like stack canaries and ASLR. This case is a timeless reminder that classic C memory safety bugs remain dangerous — especi
