fix: add buffer-length check in tape.c

[orbisai0security]

Summary

Fix high severity security issue in sbin/restore/tape.c.

Vulnerability

Field	Value
ID	V-003
Severity	HIGH
Scanner	multi_agent_ai
Rule	V-003
File	sbin/restore/tape.c:264
Assessment	Likely exploitable
CWE	CWE-120

Description: The magtape buffer is a static array of size BUFSIZ. At line 266, strcpy copies the 'source' parameter (from -f option or TAPE environment variable) without bounds checking. If source exceeds BUFSIZ, a buffer overflow occurs in the static data segment.

Evidence

Scanner confirmation: multi_agent_ai rule V-003 flagged this pattern.

Production code: This file is in the production codebase, not test-only code.

Threat Model Context

This is a local CLI tool - exploitation requires the attacker to control command-line arguments or input files.

Changes

• sbin/restore/tape.c

Note: The following lines in the same file use a similar pattern and may also need review: sbin/restore/tape.c:427, sbin/restore/tape.c:431, sbin/restore/tape.c:465, sbin/restore/tape.c:1237

Verification

• Build passes
• Scanner re-scan confirms fix
• LLM code review passed

Security Invariant

Property: Buffer reads never exceed the declared length

            set_magtape(payloads[i]);
            _exit(0);  // Should not reach here if overflow crashes
        } else {
            int status;

}

This test guards against regressions — it's useful independent of the code change above.
