Re: [Qemu-stable] [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] slirp: check sscanf result when emulating ident

William: How did you notice that? Using a static analyzer?

Samuel: since this diff is not obvious without looking at the context
(also due to the code re-indent), can you improve the commit
description, such (or better):

"Move this code inside the if(sscanf()) clause".

We have a data leak, Cc'ing qemu-stable.
(Adding the address I noticed you Cc'ed address@hidden, so that
confirms my guess).
