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/ruby-posix-spawn-0.3.13/ext/posix-spawn.c FINAL RESULTS: data/ruby-posix-spawn-0.3.13/ext/posix-spawn.c:119:4: [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 error_context[32]; data/ruby-posix-spawn-0.3.13/ext/posix-spawn.c:350:2: [2] (buffer) char: Statically-sized arrays can be improperly restricted, leading to potential overflows or other issues (CWE-119!/CWE-120).
