<div class="markdown_content"><p>I found a bug in the implementation of DosGetMessage. <br /> It seems the call to "catclose" should be made after<br /> the strcpy call that uses "catPtr". Right now, the<br /> catalog is closed before the string copy and that<br /> results in a segmentation violation because the memory<br /> associated with catPtr gets free'd in the close call. <br /> Also, you might consider using "strncpy" rather than<br /> "strcpy" to avoid overwriting the target buffer if the<br /> message is too long.</p></div>
