Descriptions

samples/geotag.cpp in the example code of Exiv2 0.26 misuses the realpath function on POSIX platforms (other than Apple platforms) where glibc is not used, possibly leading to a buffer overflow.

samples/geotag.cpp en el código de ejemplo de Exiv2 0.26 utiliza erróneamente la función realpath en las plataformas POSIX (diferentes de la plataforma de Apple) donde no se emplea glibc. Esto podría conducir a un desbordamiento de búfer.
