It would be best to convert all your sprintf calls to snprintf, which is a safer equivalent that won't overflow the buffer. If the value is too long to fit, it'll be truncated instead of overflowing and corrupting the stack. (This type of overflow is one of the main causes of security holes in apps.)

Either that or use -[NSString stringWithFormat:] instead, if it's not especially performance-sensitive code.
