New submission from Antoine Pitrou <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Currently (in py3k), the attributes "unused_data" and "unconsumed_tail" on zlib decompressor objects are bytearrays. This can wreak havoc in the read() method of ZipInfo objects, because one of those bytearrays is assigned to the internal "rawbuffer" and then extended using "+="... leading to wrong results (right now I can only reproduce it on a 3.5 GB zip file, sorry :-( ).
Here is a patch. ---------- components: Extension Modules files: zlib_unconsumed_tail.patch keywords: needs review, patch, patch messages: 72652 nosy: pitrou priority: critical severity: normal status: open title: in zlib decompressor objects, unused_data and unconsumed_tail must be immutable type: behavior versions: Python 3.0 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file11403/zlib_unconsumed_tail.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3790> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
