Fixes https://github.com/microsoft/quicreach/security/code-scanning/213
To fix the problem, we should replace the call to
gmtimewithgmtime_r, which is a thread-safe alternative. Thegmtime_rfunction requires the caller to provide atmstructure where the result will be stored, thus avoiding the use of shared static memory.gmtimewithgmtime_r.tmstructure on the stack and pass it togmtime_r.tmstructure.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix.
