package: nx-libs
version: head
In different parts of the nx-libs library you can find usages of scanf like
/* check for MESA_GAMMA environment variable */
gamma = _mesa_getenv("MESA_GAMMA");
if (gamma) {
v->RedGamma = v->GreenGamma = v->BlueGamma = 0.0;
sscanf( gamma, "%f %f %f", &v->RedGamma, &v->GreenGamma,
&v->BlueGamma );
According to cppcheck:
scanf without field width limits can crash with huge input data on libc
versions older than 2.13-25. Add a field width specifier to fix this
problem:
%i => %3i
