Hi list,
I was analyzing a program I am writing with valgrind, and I found a
small issue with libgcrypt.
Line 273 of mpicoder.c says:
for (p=buffer; !*p && *nbytes; p++, --*nbytes)
In the case of getting a buffer with *nbytes == 0, *p will be
uninitialized.
I recommend switchting !*p and *nbytes, thus changing mpicoder.c:273 to
for (p=byffer; *nbytes && !*p; p++, --*nbytes)
Greetings,
Rik.

Nothing is ever a total loss; it can always serve as a bad example.
