Removed test to detect control characters > 0x20 as this prevented
...
characters encoded in UTF-8 to be properly passed through. This
prevented a security-related patch by Solar Designer (1.29).

This will affect local messages sent from a different timezone. Also

Added boundary check for fscanf() in InitKsyms() and CheckMapVersion()
to prevent an unintended crash when reading an incorrect System.map.
Hello,
I have discovered a potential crash bug in sysklogd. The klogd daemon
doesn't handle really malformed System.map files very well. It has
two fscanf() calls with "%s"format strings that stores to char
sym[512] arrays. This causes a crash if the string field in the
file is longer than that.
Despite being a buffer overflow, this is not a security problem, as
only root can change the System.map file. Nevertheless, I think it
is worth fixing, as the Right Thing for a program should be not to
assume anything about its input and to handle various problems well.
