getenv() may return NULL if given environment variable does not exist which leads to NULL dereference when calling strncat. Besides that, the environment variable name was copied to a temporary env_var buffer, but this copying can be avoided by simply using the input string. Lastly, the whole loop can be greatly simplified by using the snprintf function instead of the playing with strncat. By the way, the current implementation allows a recursive variable expansion, as in: $ echo 'out ${A} out ' | A='a ${B} a' B=b /tmp/a out a b a out I'm assuming this is just a side effect and not a conscious decision (especially as this may lead to infinite loop), but I didn't want to change this behaviour without consulting. If the current behaviour is deamed incorrect, I'll be happy to send a patch without recursive processing.
