I think you need to look at the code a bit more carefully. unsigned int region_id, id; Also the output is %d, so the maximum length of each output int is 10 with a possible leading minus sign. 3 + 10 + 1 + 10 + 1. So 25 not 21 which is too small. The %d uses could be changed to %u to make it 23. But really it hardly matters as 30 is sufficent and the function call depth here isn't particularly high. > I'm finding and changing these manually. coccinelle could help. https://coccinelle.gitlabpages.inria.fr/website/
