From 57e71f8c89239f2591c6eccc8829cf012f377b9a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Viktor Malik Date: Wed, 29 Jan 2025 08:18:57 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] bpftool: Fix readlink usage in get_fd_type The `readlink(path, buf, sizeof(buf))` call reads at most sizeof(buf) bytes and *does not* append null-terminator to buf. With respect to that, fix two pieces in get_fd_type: 1. Change the truncation check to contain sizeof(buf) rather than sizeof(path). 2. Append null-terminator to buf. Reported by Coverity.
