From: Enrico Scholz Date: Mon, 18 Mar 2024 11:14:21 +0000 (+0100) Subject: lib/copydir:copy_entry(): use temporary stat buffer X-Git-Tag: 4.15.1~9 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=000619344ddb;p=thirdparty%2Fshadow.git lib/copydir:copy_entry(): use temporary stat buffer There are no guarantees that fstatat() does not clobber the stat buffer on errors. Use a temporary buffer so that the following code sees correct attributes of the source entry.
