PVS-Studio warning V528 for UltimateTCPIP

char *CUT_CramMd5::GetClientResponse(LPCSTR ServerChallenge)
{
  ...
  if (m_szPassword != NULL)
  {
    ...
    if (m_szPassword != '\0')
    {
  ...
}

Most likely this is what should be written here: (*m_szPassword != '\0').


This suspicious code was found in UltimateTCPIP project by PVS-Studio static code analyzer.
Warning message is:
V528 It is odd that pointer to 'char' type is compared with the '\0' value. Probably meant: *m_szPassword != '\0'. UTMail ut_crammd5.cpp 333
