Bug#542640: hpijs: segfault can't use my HP Deskjet 5940
Hi,
I have corrected the segfault in hpijs :
--- hplip-2.8.6.b-orig/prnt/hpijs/hpijs.cpp 2008-07-23 03:33:17.000000000 +0200
+++ hplip-2.8.6.b/prnt/hpijs/hpijs.cpp 2009-08-21 22:25:07.761506689 +0200
@@ -58,7 +58,7 @@
if ((n = vsnprintf(buf, 256, fmt, args)) == -1)
buf[255] = 0; /* output was truncated */
- fprintf(stderr, buf);
+ fputs(buf, stderr);
syslog(LOG_WARNING, buf);
fflush(stderr);
The source of the segfault is in hpijs_set_cb() :
320 else
321 bug("unable to set key=%s, value=%s\n", key, svalue);
Where key and svalue are "user" input string from gs. You can see this in
my foomatic-rip log line 103 : "-sOutputFile=%stdout". The %s caused
fprintf to segfault...
Anyway, it fixes the segfault (and a security hole ?), but my printer is
not working...
Best Regards
