I suspect that you are getting "Encoding error" because the program just reads past the boundary? I'd suggest using valgrind or compile the program with `CFLAGS="-O2 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2"` instead of using gdb.

Some might consider this as a security issue, though I'd say it's very low severity: [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L](https://www.first.org/cvss/calculator/3-1#CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L), given that SRP support is disabled by default since 3.8.0 and srptool is not even part of major distributions.
