https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=679459 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=679459#c10 --- Comment #10 from Petr Gajdos 2011-03-21 09:09:46 UTC --- I didn't test and I actually don't know why that bug hadn't arosen till now. But the dangerous code is in all versions we support as far as I can tell. infoSector->signature3 is unsigned char [2] (compare with ->signature1 and ->signature2), but set is with set_dword() -- like ->signature1 and ->signature2 are. Look at set_word() and set_dword() definitions in msdos.h for details. I propose following patch: Index: mtools-4.0.15/fat.c =================================================================== --- mtools-4.0.15.orig/fat.c +++ mtools-4.0.15/fat.c @@ -468,7 +468,7 @@ void fat_write(Fs_t *This) set_dword(infoSector->signature2, INFOSECT_SIGNATURE2); set_dword(infoSector->pos, This->last); set_dword(infoSector->count, This->freeSpace); - set_dword(infoSector->signature3, 0xaa55); + set_word(infoSector->signature3, 0xaa55); if(forceWriteSector(This, (char *)infoSector, This->infoSectorLoc, 1) != (signed int) This->sector_size) fprintf(stderr,"Trouble writing the info sector\n"); -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
