This is called float not having enough precession.  This is not a bug.  Please
read what floating point is.

The full testcase looks like:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void)
{
        char currConv[9];
        float currConvf;
        memset(currConv, '\0', sizeof(currConv));
        memcpy(currConv, "60342935", 8);
        currConv[8] = 0;
        currConvf = atof(currConv);
        printf("%f\n", currConvf);
}
