Created attachment 159029 [details] syslog.3.patch The syslog function signature looks like this: void syslog(int priority, const char *message, ...); In the BUGS section of syslog(3), the reader is warned about formatting attacks and it is suggested that the following idiom be used: syslog("%s", string); The example lacks the first int argument (the priority). The attached patch adds the missing 'priority' argument to the example code.
