New submission from Christian Heimes: PyOS_StdioReadline() contains code such as:
p = (char *)PyMem_REALLOC(p, n + incr); The code looses its pointer to p when realloc fails and has no chance to free the memory in p. Also the code sets PyExc_OverflowError when incr > INT_MAX but it doesn't return NULL to signal the error. ---------- components: Interpreter Core files: osreadline.patch keywords: patch messages: 192352 nosy: christian.heimes priority: normal severity: normal stage: patch review status: open title: PyOS_StdioReadline() leaks memory when realloc() fails type: resource usage versions: Python 3.3, Python 3.4 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file30782/osreadline.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18368> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
