PScan is a C source code security scanner, which looks for misuse of libc functions which use varargs and printf-style formatting operators. In many situations these can cause security vulnerabilities in the application if it runs with privileges (setugid, or listening to a network socket, etc). An example of the kind of situation pscan looks for is the following: variable = "%s"; /* or malicious user input */ sprintf(buffer, variable); /* BAD! */

Binary packages can be installed with the high-level tool pkgin (which can be installed with pkg_add) or pkg_add(1) (installed by default). The NetBSD packages collection is also designed to permit easy installation from source.
The pkg_admin audit command locates any installed package which has been mentioned in security advisories as having vulnerabilities.
Please note the vulnerabilities database might not be fully accurate, and not every bug is exploitable with every configuration.
Problem reports, updates or suggestions for this package should be reported with send-pr.
