[Bug 2003003] Re: unixODBC crashes when ODBC trace is enabled

[Lena Voytek]

Hello,

I looked into possible solutions from upstream and found this bug:
https://github.com/lurcher/unixODBC/issues/103

It seems to match the issue reported here from what I can tell. This was
fixed by
https://github.com/lurcher/unixODBC/commit/6727dee310d7d914eb203385e857fbc741394935

I created a PPA for 22.04 with this change added here:
https://launchpad.net/~lvoytek/+archive/ubuntu/unixodbc-fix-trace-
buffer-overflow

If you would like to test it you can run:

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lvoytek/unixodbc-fix-trace-buffer-overflow
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt upgrade

Thanks!

Title:
  unixODBC crashes when ODBC trace is enabled

Status in unixodbc package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The package unixODBC 2.3.9-5, that installs by default on Ubuntu 22.04
  contains a crash. If ODBC trace is enabled
  (https://www.easysoft.com/support/kb/kb00945.html) unixODBC will crash
  when calling GetDiagRec(). It reports a buffer overflow while calling
  a _sprintf. Newer version of unixODBC, 2.3.11, does not contain this
  bug (I've built one from source on my 22.04 VM).
