[Nagios-devel] Bug in Parameter Parsing ...

Post by Guest »

Hello ,

yesterday ive updated my nagios-cvs installation from 20.jan to the
version from yesterday (01.jun).
Im using this system to check about 1500 Hosts. About 1100 of them
are in a generic servicegroup. The members line of this is about 24000
characters long (configuration is exported by a hand written perl script
out of our host database).
The new nagios version crashes with a segfault loading/verifying this
configuration.
Ive looked in the source and found the MAX_XODTEMPLATE_INPUT_BUFFER macro.
Setting this value to 65535 (this value is by the way hardcoded for
my_fgets in xodtemplate.c) resolves the crashing problem.

Sorry ive no debugger by the hand, so i cant look closer.

Best regards
Percy
