How do you fix the unbounded string copy in the following code? char fname[20]; /* 1 / cout << “Enter First Name:”; / 2 / cin >> fname ; / 3 */

technology security

  1. Replace cin call in line 3 with gets() function

  2. The length of input from cin cannot be limited. Use a larger array for fname

  3. Use cin.width[20] before line 3

  4. Use cin.size[19] before line 3

Correct Option: C

Are there any memory issues in the following code? Please assume that variable inputsize has the correct size. int add_num_array(int inputsize, int num) { int newnum = malloc (inputsize * sizeof(int)); / 1 */ int i; for (i=0; i
technology security

  1. No vulnerabilities are present

  2. Line 1 should only use malloc(inputsize)

  3. Line 2 should be for (i=0; i<=n, i++)

  4. Line 1 should use calloc() instead of malloc()
