CWE-475: Constraints on Internal Functions - Unspecified Behavior

Constraints are imposed on the arguments of certain internal functions by the Linux Standard Base Specification 2.0.1 for libc [21]. If these constraints are not satisfied, the behavior of the functions is unspecified. It is uncommon for this function to be directly called, as it is usually invoked through a macro defined in a system header file. The macro guarantees that the given constraints are met: The third parameter (which corresponds to the version number) of the file system function __xmknod must be assigned the value 1. Similarly, the third parameter (representing the group argument) of the wide character string functions __wcstod_internal, __wcstof_internal, __wcstol_internal, __wcstold_internal, and __wcstoul_internal must all receive the value 2. In addition, the first parameter (denoting the version number) of the file system functions __xstat, __lxstat, __fxstat, __xstat64, __lxstat64, and __fxstat64 must be set to 3.
