When importing data from cmcdump into the Check_MK Micro Core, a buffer for the long plugin output was too small, leading to a buffer overflow with unpredictable consequences. The affected COMMANDs on the Livestatus interface were UPDATE_SHADOW_HOST_STATE and UPDATE_SHADOW_SERVICE_STATE. This has been fixed.
