[Bug 1720627] Re: Segfault when using docker and overlay2

 

** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
+  * With long entries in mtab tools utilizing the get_filesystem_nr and read_filesystem functions cause a segfault due to a fact that they don't
+ check strchr result for being null.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+  *
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+  * The fix is present upstream, so the behaviour will be consistent with
+ the upstream version.
+ 
+  * I don't see any potential regression manifestation, as this is a
+ simple bugfix fixing ignoring function return values.
+ 
+ [Other Info]

  This is the same bug as https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
  bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=872926 which is fixed upstream by
  https://github.com/sysstat/sysstat/commit/d40c8ecc530303d7e802617f21a9ac85dbcd68bd
  
  Would it be possible to get this patch added?
