The uninitialized data never directly influences the control flow and is overwritten on successful return by the second half of the parsed IPv4 address. But it's better to fix this to avoid unexpected transformations by a sufficiently smart compiler and reports from UB-detection tools. --- diff --git a/src/network/inet_pton.c b/src/network/inet_pton.c index d36c3689..bcbdd9ef 100644 --- a/src/network/inet_pton.c +++ b/src/network/inet_pton.c @@ -54,6 +54,7 @@ int inet_pton(int af, const char *restrict s, void *restrict a0) if (s[j]!='.' || (i<6 && brk<0)) return 0; need_v4=1; i++; + ip[i&7]=0; break; } s += j+1;
