Hi If one is using the http server module in libevent1.3b, sending malformed headers causes a segfault. This is easy to replicate, just telnet to the httpd port and type some junk.
Here is a back trace #0 0x0040e43e in evhttp_handle_request (req=0x0, arg=0x82696a8) at http.c:1242 #1 0x0040f011 in evhttp_connection_fail (evcon=0x8268cb0) at http.c:333 #2 0x0040f262 in evhttp_read_header (fd=25, what=2, arg=0x8268cb0) at http.c:949 #3 0x0040af84 in event_base_loop (base=0x8268398, flags=Variable "flags" is not available. ) at event.c:309 #4 0x0040b165 in event_loop (flags=136746664) at event.c:358 #5 0x0040b189 in event_dispatch () at event.c:321 #6 0x080505b6 in ServerMain (pSrvConfig=0x8220400) at ServerMain.c:125 #7 0x0804eeba in main (argc=1, argv=0xbffffaa4) at main.c:286 (gdb) I am not sure whether this should be patched in evhttp_handle_request or evhttp_connection_fail . Thanks Nisan
