2 NOV 2022: Two files: notoverflow.c and overflow.c
One overflows a char array of length 1, and the other one doesn't.
NOTOVERFLOW.C
The one that doesn't overflow (or at least doesn't crash) uses strlcpy() to try to put a 9-character string literal into a char array of size 1. It doesn't crash but it doesn't produce any output from the resulting buffer either.
OVERFLOW.C
The one that does overflow uses strcpy().
First, it allocates a char array of size 2 and tries to use strcpy() to place one letter into it.
This produces the output:
"buffer content= e "strcpy() executed..."
on both CHERI and MacOS.
Then, it allocates a char array of size 1 and tries to use strcpy() to place one letter into it.
On CHERI this produces Error 255.
On MacOS this produces the same output as before:
"buffer content= e "strcpy() executed..."
