Julius Hemanth Pitti b4be735fdb netkit-telnetd: Fix buffer overflow in netoprintf
netoprintf() was not handling a case where
return value of vsnprintf is greater than
"size"(2nd argument), results in buffer overflow
while adjusting "nfrontp" pointer to point
beyond "netobuf" buffer.

Here is one such case where "nfrontp"
crossed boundaries of "netobuf", and
pointing to another global variable.

(gdb) p &netobuf[8255]
$5 = 0x55c93afe8b1f <netobuf+8255> ""
(gdb) p nfrontp
$6 = 0x55c93afe8c20 <terminaltype> "\377"
(gdb) p &terminaltype
$7 = (char **) 0x55c93afe8c20 <terminaltype>
(gdb)

This resulted in crash of telnetd service
with segmentation fault.

meta-networking
===============

This layer is intended to be a central point for networking-related
packages and configuration.  It should be useful directly on top of
oe-core and compliments meta-openembedded.  It should be primarily useful
to the following groups:

      - Anyone building a small networking device (eg. a home router /
        bridge / switch).

      - Anyone wanting to add network services to their device (eg.
        anything that might benefit from a small ftp/tftp server)

Dependencies
------------

This layer depends on:

URI: git://github.com/openembedded/openembedded-core.git
