Problem IC87885 | Status: Closed |
USING A COLUMN WITH EXPLICIT INLINE LENGTH MAY CAUSE BUFFER OVERRUN | |
product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
DB2 supports specification of an inline length for a column of type XML/LOB/user defined type. Under the scenario where this column is used as an input to a function, DB2 might ignore the inline length specification and use the default length for the datatype. This can lead to buffer overruns and memory corruption if the data length exceeds the default datatype length. | |
