Use a constant for the format specification. #define snprintf _snprintf data/dssp-3.0.0/src/mas.h:24:18: [4] (format) _snprintf: If format strings can be influenced by an attacker, they can be exploited, and note that sprintf variations do not always \0-terminate (CWE-134).

They can have any content and length, and the same variable can be set more than once (CWE-807, CWE-20).

Check environment variables carefully before using them. const char* home = getenv("HOME"); data/dssp-3.0.0/src/dssp.cpp:57:3: [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 helix[3]; data/dssp-3.0.0/src/dssp.cpp:79:3: [2] (buffer) char: Statically-sized arrays can be improperly restricted, leading to potential overflows or other issues (CWE-119!/CWE-120).

If source untrusted, check both minimum and maximum, even if the input had no minus sign (large numbers can roll over into negative number; consider saving to an unsigned value if that is intended). if (atoi(atom["pdbx_PDB_model_num"].c_str()) > 1) data/dssp-3.0.0/src/structure.h:110:3: [2] (buffer) char: Statically-sized arrays can be improperly restricted, leading to potential overflows or other issues (CWE-119!/CWE-120).
