the outer getnameinfo function already has a properly-sized temporary
buffer for storing the reverse dns (ptr) result. there is no reason
for the callback to use a secondary buffer and copy it on success, and
doing so potentially expanded the impact of the dn_expand bug that was
fixed in commit
49d2c8c6bcf8c926e52c7f510033b6adc31355f5.
this change reduces the code size by a small amount, and also reduces
the run-time stack space requirements by about 256 bytes.
static int dns_parse_callback(void *c, int rr, const void *data, int len, const void *packet)
{
- char tmp[256];
if (rr != RR_PTR) return 0;
if (__dn_expand(packet, (const unsigned char *)packet + 512,
- data, tmp, sizeof tmp) > 0)
- strcpy(c, tmp);
+ data, c, 256) <= 0)
+ *(char *)c = 0;
return 0;
}
