Examining data/install-mimic-0.4.0/install-mimic.c

FINAL RESULTS:

data/install-mimic-0.4.0/install-mimic.c:44:50:  [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 __printflike(x, y)	__attribute__((format(printf, (x), (y))))
data/install-mimic-0.4.0/install-mimic.c:85:16:  [4] (format) vsnprintf:
  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). Use
  a constant for the format specification.
	const int n = vsnprintf(buf, sz, fmt, v);
data/install-mimic-0.4.0/install-mimic.c:146:3:  [4] (shell) execvp:
  This causes a new program to execute and is difficult to use safely
  (CWE-78). try using a library call that implements the same functionality
  if available.
		execvp("install", (char * const *)cmd);
data/install-mimic-0.4.0/install-mimic.c:173:14:  [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, "hr:Vv-:"), ch != -1)
data/install-mimic-0.4.0/install-mimic.c:131:2:  [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 owner[20], group[20], mode[6];
data/install-mimic-0.4.0/install-mimic.c:222:31:  [1] (buffer) strlen:
  Does not handle strings that are not \0-terminated; if given one it may
  perform an over-read (it could cause a crash if unprotected) (CWE-126).
		const size_t last_dir_len = strlen(last_dir);
data/install-mimic-0.4.0/install-mimic.c:231:22:  [1] (buffer) strlen:
  Does not handle strings that are not \0-terminated; if given one it may
  perform an over-read (it could cause a crash if unprotected) (CWE-126).
			const size_t sz = strlen(src) + 1;
data/install-mimic-0.4.0/install-mimic.c:239:8:  [1] (buffer) strlen:
  Does not handle strings that are not \0-terminated; if given one it may
  perform an over-read (it could cause a crash if unprotected) (CWE-126).
			    strlen(base) + 1;
