Sembra che sia ancora possibile traboccare se provi (o fai semplicemente un errore) con questo esempio implementazione di memcpy :
$ cat mc.c
#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#undef memcpy
#define bos0(dest) __builtin_object_size (dest, 0)
#define memcpy(dest, src, n) \
__builtin___memcpy_chk (dest, src, n, bos0 (dest))
int main() {
char baz[64];
char bar[16];
char foo[16];
char* f = foo;
char* b = baz;
int len = 26;
strncpy(baz, "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz", 26);
memset(bar, 0, sizeof(bar));
memcpy(f, b, len); // [a-z] is bigger than foo, will overflow into bar
printf("Evidence of buffer overflow: %s\n", bar);
printf("now press enter to see runtime detection working properly: \n");
(void)getchar(); // pause for user input
memcpy(foo, bar, len); // buffer overflow detected at runtime
return 0;
}
$ g++ -Wall mc.c
$ ./a.out
Evidence of buffer overflow: qrstuvwxyz
now press enter to see runtime detection working properly:
*** buffer overflow detected ***: ./a.out terminated
