topology: Fix strcat() to uninitialized memory in add_define() #277

@rfvirgil rfvirgil commented Nov 7, 2024

If *defs == NULL the realloc() will be a simple malloc() and return a pointer to uninitialized memory. Doing a strcat() to this is bad, so in that case strcpy() the string into the newly allocated buffer.

This fixes the buffer overflow bug, such as:

*** buffer overflow detected ***: terminated
Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.
