FINAL RESULTS:

data/fastqtl-2.184+dfsg/src/utils/tabix.cpp:16:12:  [4] (buffer) strcpy:
  Does not check for buffer overflows when copying to destination [MS-banned]
  (CWE-120). Consider using snprintf, strcpy_s, or strlcpy (warning: strncpy
  easily misused).

  contents? (CWE-362).

  maximum possible length.
