To make
isValidAbsolutePath
function more secure use thestrnlen
function instead of thestrlen
.Calling the
strlen
function can potentially be unsafe. Thestrlen
function calculates the length of a string by counting characters until it reaches a null character and if the string is not properly null-terminated thenstrlen
will continue reading memory beyond the end of the string, which can lead to undefined behavior or a program crash.
