Buffer overrun reports fall into several "buckets" corresponding to the expected precision of the report. The higher the number, the more likely it is to be a false positive.
-
L1
: The most faithful report, when it must be unsafe. For example, array size:[5,5]
, offset:[3,3]
. -
L2
: Less faithful report thanL1
, when it may be unsafe. For example, array size:[5,5]
, offset:[0,5]
. Note that the offset may be a safe value in the real execution, i.e. 0, 1, 2, 3, 4. -
L5
: The least faithful report, when there is an interval top. For example, array size:[5,5]
, offset:[-oo,+oo]
. -
L4
: More faithful report thanL5
, when there is an infinity value. For example, array size:[5,5]
, offset:[0, +oo]
. -
L3
: The reports that are not included in the above cases. -
S2
: An array access is unsafe by symbolic values. For example, array size:[n,n]
, offset[n,+oo]
. -
U5
: An array access is unsafe by unknown values, which are usually from unknown function calls.
