I just checked the GNU git sources (https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/findutils.git)
the bug was fixed upstream commit febde26dd0e66dda5d4060fa29b85443ddc6a865 Author: Bernhard Voelker <m...@bernhard-voelker.de> Date: Mon Aug 28 23:15:12 2017 +0200 find: avoid buffer-overflow with -printf '%T+' * find/print.c (format_date): Increase size of local variable FMT to match the longest possible content. Fixes https://bugs.debian.org/873032 reported upstream by Andreas Metzler in https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?51841; fix proposed by Kamil Dudka. Bug introduced in commit v4.6.0-111-g95816b2, so no released version ever saw this; therefore not adding a NEWS entry. commit 95816b29d46fb6b64754d4a66e7d918b3f134a1f Author: James Youngman <j...@gnu.org> Date: Sun Jul 23 22:19:42 2017 +0100 find: avoid strftime's non-portable %F specifier. * find/print.c (format_date): Avoid passing %F to strftime since some implementation lack it. Pass the synonymous %Y-%m-%d instead. This fixes a bug manifesting on HP Tru64 UNIX V5.1B. Reported by Steven M.
