Vulnerability Type:
===================

Local Stack Based Buffer Overflow


issue:
===================

'wifirx.c' contain a vulnerable code in the line '111' the developer use the 'strcpy' function and does not check the buffer destination and cause a Stack Oveflow. 
 
Vulnerable Code (102 - 124) wifirx.c:
===================
int GetQuality( const char * interface, int * noise )
{
	int sockfd;
	struct iw_statistics stats;
	struct iwreq req;


	memset(&stats, 0, sizeof(stats));
	memset(&req, 0, sizeof(struct iwreq));
	strcpy( req.ifr_name, interface );
	req.u.data.pointer = &stats;
	req.u.data.length = sizeof(struct iw_statistics);
#ifdef CLEAR_UPDATED
	req.u.data.flags = 1;
#endif

	/* Any old socket will do, and a datagram socket is pretty cheap */
	if((sockfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0)) == -1) {
		if( first ) perror("Could not create simple datagram socket");
		first = 0;
		//exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
		return -1;
	}
