Security vulnerabilities and automated fixes for stack corruption issues
1 post found
A critical buffer overflow vulnerability was discovered in `playground/GpsBasics/display_controller.cpp` where `sprintf` was used without bounds checking on fixed-size stack buffers. An attacker supplying malicious GPS data with extreme field values (such as a year value of `99999`) could produce a formatted string longer than the declared buffer, leading to stack corruption and potential code execution. The fix introduces proper buffer-length enforcement, ensuring formatted GPS strings can neve
