Flawfinder version 2.0.10, (C) 2001-2019 David A. Wheeler. Number of rules (primarily dangerous function names) in C/C++ ruleset: 223 Examining data/dnsproxy-1.16/daemon.c Examining data/dnsproxy-1.16/dnsproxy.c Examining data/dnsproxy-1.16/dnsproxy.h Examining data/dnsproxy-1.16/hash.c Examining data/dnsproxy-1.16/internal.c Examining data/dnsproxy-1.16/log.c Examining data/dnsproxy-1.16/parse.c Examining data/dnsproxy-1.16/stats.c FINAL RESULTS: data/dnsproxy-1.16/dnsproxy.c:257:4: [4] (format) fprintf: If format strings can be influenced by an attacker, they can be exploited (CWE-134). Use a constant for the format specification. fprintf(stderr, PACKAGE_STRING "\n"); data/dnsproxy-1.16/dnsproxy.h:51:25: [4] (format) printf: If format strings can be influenced by an attacker, they can be exploited (CWE-134). Use a constant for the format specification. #define DPRINTF(x) do { printf x ; } while (0) data/dnsproxy-1.16/log.c:46:9: [4] (format) vfprintf: If format strings can be influenced by an attacker, they can be exploited (CWE-134). Use a constant for the format specification. (void)vfprintf(stderr, fmt, ap); data/dnsproxy-1.16/dnsproxy.c:248:15: [3] (buffer) getopt: Some older implementations do not protect against internal buffer overflows (CWE-120, CWE-20). Check implementation on installation, or limit the size of all string inputs. while ((ch = getopt(argc, argv, "c:dhV")) != -1) { data/dnsproxy-1.16/dnsproxy.c:331:27: [3] (misc) chroot: chroot can be very helpful, but is hard to use correctly (CWE-250, CWE-22). Make sure the program immediately chdir("/"), closes file descriptors, and drops root privileges, and that all necessary files (and no more!) are in the new root. if (chdir(chrootdir) || chroot(chrootdir)) data/dnsproxy-1.16/daemon.c:59:24: [2] (misc) open: Check when opening files - can an attacker redirect it (via symlinks), force the opening of special file type (e.g., device files), move things around to create a race condition, control its ancestors, or change its contents? (CWE-362). if (!noclose && (fd = open("/dev/null", O_RDWR, 0)) != -1) { data/dnsproxy-1.16/dnsproxy.c:86:2: [2] (buffer) char: Statically-sized arrays can be improperly restricted, leading to potential overflows or other issues (CWE-119!/CWE-120). Perform bounds checking, use functions that limit length, or ensure that the size is larger than the maximum possible length. char buf[MAX_BUFSPACE]; data/dnsproxy-1.16/dnsproxy.c:123:2: [2] (buffer) memcpy: Does not check for buffer overflows when copying to destination (CWE-120). Make sure destination can always hold the source data. memcpy(&req->client, &fromaddr, sizeof(struct sockaddr_in)); data/dnsproxy-1.16/dnsproxy.c:124:2: [2] (buffer) memcpy: Does not check for buffer overflows when copying to destination (CWE-120). Make sure destination can always hold the source data. memcpy(&req->clientid, &buf[0], 2); data/dnsproxy-1.16/dnsproxy.c:140:2: [2] (buffer) memcpy: Does not check for buffer overflows when copying to destination (CWE-120). Make sure destination can always hold the source data. memcpy(&buf[0], &req->id, 2); data/dnsproxy-1.16/dnsproxy.c:189:2: [2] (buffer) char: Statically-sized arrays can be improperly restricted, leading to potential overflows or other issues (CWE-119!/CWE-120). Perform bounds checking, use functions that limit length, or ensure that the size is larger than the maximum possible length. char buf[MAX_BUFSPACE]; data/dnsproxy-1.16/dnsproxy.c:219:2: [2] (buffer) memcpy: Does not check for buffer overflows when copying to destination (CWE-120). Make sure destination can always hold the source data. memcpy(&buf[0], &query->clientid, 2); data/dnsproxy-1.16/internal.c:63:2: [2] (buffer) memcpy: Does not check for buffer overflows when copying to destination (CWE-120). Make sure destination can always hold the source data. memcpy(&ipa->addr, &addr, 4); data/dnsproxy-1.16/internal.c:82:2: [2] (buffer) memcpy: Does not check for buffer overflows when copying to destination (CWE-120). Make sure destination can always hold the source data. memcpy(&addr, &arg, 4); data/dnsproxy-1.16/parse.c:38:2: [2] (buffer) char: Statically-sized arrays can be improperly restricted, leading to potential overflows or other issues (CWE-119!/CWE-120). Perform bounds checking, use functions that limit length, or ensure that the size is larger than the maximum possible length. char buf[1024]; data/dnsproxy-1.16/parse.c:41:11: [2] (misc) fopen: Check when opening files - can an attacker redirect it (via symlinks), force the opening of special file type (e.g., device files), move things around to create a race condition, control its ancestors, or change its contents? (CWE-362). if ((f = fopen(fname, "r")) == NULL) ANALYSIS SUMMARY: Hits = 16 Lines analyzed = 999 in approximately 0.06 seconds (16569 lines/second) Physical Source Lines of Code (SLOC) = 603 Hits@level = [0] 4 [1] 0 [2] 11 [3] 2 [4] 3 [5] 0 Hits@level+ = [0+] 20 [1+] 16 [2+] 16 [3+] 5 [4+] 3 [5+] 0 Hits/KSLOC@level+ = [0+] 33.1675 [1+] 26.534 [2+] 26.534 [3+] 8.29187 [4+] 4.97512 [5+] 0 Minimum risk level = 1 Not every hit is necessarily a security vulnerability.
