Package: openarena-server Version: 0.8.8-5 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
as i have hinted in my last report to #664637, there are at least two different kind of bugs which can lead to a server crash. This one is reproducible with Debian's standard configuration. *How to reproduce the crash?* 1. Join the server and open the ingame console with Shift+ESC or ~. 2. Ask for a vote to kick a non-existing player on the server like \callvote kick pullo if pullo is a player who does not play on the server. 3. Result: Segmentation Fault and server crash The crash always occurs if the callvote name differs from the actual player names. If you ask for a callvote and if you leave the field for the player name blank, then the following message can be found in the log file. NET_CompareBaseAdr: bad address type As far as i can tell the "clientkick id"-command, which you can use from the ingame menu, works as intended. *Quick solution* Disable the vote option to kick a player from the server in /etc/openarena-server/server.cfg. The default value is: set g_voteNames "/map_restart/nextmap/map/g_gametype/kick/clientkick/g_doWarmup/timelimit/fraglimit/shuffle" If you remove "kick" from the line the callvote option to kick another player is disabled and nobody can crash the server anymore. set g_voteNames "/map_restart/nextmap/map/g_gametype/clientkick/g_doWarmup/timelimit/fraglimit/shuffle" *Attachments* I've attached my debug log files and the backtrace from gdb. It seems that the if-condition in code/game/g_cmds.c line 1818 is never true although the player doesn't exist. Somehow the server doesn't check carefully enough if a player exists or not.
