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/vdens-0.2/vdens.c FINAL RESULTS: data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:342:4: [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(cmdargv[0], cmdargv); data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:352:7: [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(cmdargv[0], cmdargv); data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:374:13: [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(cmdargv[0], cmdargv); data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:393:7: [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(cmdargv[0], cmdargv); data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:426:20: [3] (buffer) getenv: Environment variables are untrustable input if they can be set by an attacker. 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. char *argvsh[] = {getenv("SHELL"),NULL}; data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:444:15: [3] (buffer) getenv: Environment variables are untrustable input if they can be set by an attacker. 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. resolvconf = getenv("VDE_RESOLVCONF"); data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:445:15: [3] (buffer) getenv: Environment variables are untrustable input if they can be set by an attacker. 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. resolvaddr = getenv("VDE_RESOLVADDR"); data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:449:12: [3] (buffer) getopt_long: 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. if ((c = getopt_long(argc, argv, short_options, long_options, NULL)) == -1) data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:99:2: [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 map_file[PATH_MAX]; data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:104:6: [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). f = fopen(map_file, "w"); data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:110:6: [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?

Perform bounds checking, use functions that limit length, or ensure that the size is larger than the maximum possible length. char child_stack[STACK_SIZE]; data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:217:11: [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((fd = open("/dev/net/tun", O_RDWR | O_CLOEXEC)) < 0) data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:231:3: [2] (buffer) char: Statically-sized arrays can be improperly restricted, leading to potential overflows or other issues (CWE-119!/CWE-120).

Some older Unix-like systems create temp files with permission to write by all by default, so be sure to set the umask to override this. Also, some older Unix systems might fail to use O_EXCL when opening the file, so make sure that O_EXCL is used by the library (CWE-377). int fd = mkstemp(tmpname); data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:151:12: [1] (buffer) read: Check buffer boundaries if used in a loop including recursive loops (CWE-120, CWE-20). rwlen = read(pipe_fd[0], &unshare_rv, sizeof(unshare_rv)); data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:179:7: [1] (buffer) read: Check buffer boundaries if used in a loop including recursive loops (CWE-120, CWE-20). if (read(pipe_fd[0], buf, 1) != 0) data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:252:9: [1] (buffer) read: Check buffer boundaries if used in a loop including recursive loops (CWE-120, CWE-20). n = read(tapfd[i], buf, VDE_ETHBUFSIZE); data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:285:8: [1] (buffer) read: Check buffer boundaries if used in a loop including recursive loops (CWE-120, CWE-20). n = read(tapfd, buf, VDE_ETHBUFSIZE); data/vdens-0.2/vdens.c:290:8: [1] (buffer) read: Check buffer boundaries if used in a loop including recursive loops (CWE-120, CWE-20). n = read(streamfd[0], buf, VDE_ETHBUFSIZE); ANALYSIS SUMMARY: Hits = 23 Lines analyzed = 546 in approximately 0.03 seconds (16368 lines/second) Physical Source Lines of Code (SLOC) = 488 Hits@level = [0] 9 [1] 5 [2] 10 [3] 4 [4] 4 [5] 0 Hits@level+ = [0+] 32 [1+] 23 [2+] 18 [3+] 8 [4+] 4 [5+] 0 Hits/KSLOC@level+ = [0+] 65.5738 [1+] 47.1311 [2+] 36.8852 [3+] 16.3934 [4+] 8.19672 [5+] 0 Dot directories skipped = 1 (--followdotdir overrides) Minimum risk level = 1 Not every hit is necessarily a security vulnerability.
