What is format string vulnerability in C?
A format string vulnerability is a bug where user input is passed as the format argument to printf , scanf , or another function in that family. The format argument has many different specifies which could allow an attacker to leak data if they control the format argument to printf .
What is a format string vulnerability?
What is a Format String Vulnerability? Often found in C language programs, it refers to a bug found in the printf() function. It is widely used to transport data, which could be ASCII text strings, to the standard output. When used properly, text strings can lead to effective and automated conversion types.
How format string attacks can be prevented?
Preventing format string attacks
If possible, make the format string a constant. If the above isn't possible, then always specify a format string as part of the program rather than as an input. You can fix most format string vulnerabilities by simply specifying %s as the format string.
Format Specifiers Used in C
1%c :char single character.2%d (%i) :int signed integer.3%e (%E) :float or double exponential format.4%f :float or double signed decimal.5%g (%G) :float or double use %f or %e as required.6%o :int unsigned octal value.7%p :pointer address stored in pointer.8%s :array of char sequence of characters.
