RE: Self Help (1): security parser

[Franck Martin <Franck sopac org>]

Sorry I can't find back the pointer, but on the bugtraq securityfocus com
mailing list, someone recently talked about the release of a parser that
look for security errors in C code like:

printf(pStr);

Which is the root of all buffer overflow security problems. There are other
problems that get checked...

As you have more bandwidth than me, you could have a look and let us know if
it would improve the security of Gnome programs.
