[Olsr-dev] [PATCH v1 03/12] Makefile: WARNINGS: add -Wformat-security

[Ferry Huberts]

From: Ferry Huberts <(spam-protected)>

-Wformat-security
   If -Wformat is specified, also warn about uses of format
   functions that represent possible security problems.  At
   present, this warns about calls to "printf" and "scanf"
   functions where the format string is not a string literal
   and there are no format arguments, as in "printf (foo);".
   This may be a security hole if the format string came from
   untrusted input and contains %n. (This is currently a subset
   of what -Wformat-nonliteral warns about, but in future warnings
   may be added to -Wformat-security that are not included in
   -Wformat-nonliteral.)
