[PATCH v2] addmntent: Remove unbounded alloca usage from getmntent [BZ#27083]

Siddhesh Poyarekar siddhesh@sourceware.org
Tue Dec 22 10:08:46 GMT 2020


The addmntent function replicates elements of struct mnt on stack
using alloca, which is unsafe.  Put characters directly into the
stream, escaping them as they're being written out.

Also add a test to check all escaped characters with addmntent and
getmntent.
