DFS1967 MESSAGE SEGMENT BUFFER OVERLAY

Explanation

The EDIT EXIT routine can change the message contents and can increase the message length by as much as 256 bytes. The total message length cannot exceed 32,764 bytes. If the message length exceeds this limit, or if the message is increased by more than 256 bytes, the message is truncated.

System action

The message is truncated.

Programmer response

Correct the Edit Exit routine to prevent an increase of the message of more than 256 bytes.
