<title>Installation of Gzip</title>

|
|
<para>The following patch fixes a buffer overflow that occurs when a
|
|
filename is longer than 1020 characters. It does this by inserting a check
|
|
that the buffer is large enough for the given filename. The program exits
|
|
with the message "Filename too long" if the buffer is not large enough.</para>
