Subject: apparmor: replace sprintf with snprintf in aa_new_learning_profile
X-Git-Tag: v7.0-rc1~35^2~33
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7db8c3c738118b6d9e5c3eb54e352fdae1bb0faf;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

apparmor: replace sprintf with snprintf in aa_new_learning_profile

Replace unbounded sprintf() calls with snprintf() to prevent potential
buffer overflows in aa_new_learning_profile(). While the current code
works correctly, snprintf() is safer and follows secure coding best
practices.  No functional changes.
