Bug ID: 81400 Summary: Stack smashing not caught by stack protector strong and allowing me to stack smash Product: gcc Version: 7.1.1 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: gccbugzilla.severach at spamgourmet dot com Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 41720 --> https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=41720&action=edit Stack smash demo I've made up some simple cases where stack smashing is not being caught. In one case -fstack-protector-strong prevents a seg fault and allows me to stack smash unchallenged. The demo is attached as a .tgz. Though this is against the rules the bug system doesn't allow me to submit the multiple files requested any other way. Consider this a bug report that the bug writing guidelines should be changed to "we require a .tar .tgz .zip of the files to be submitted" or the bug tracker needs to accept multiple files.
