Bug#466339: liferea: crashes randomly when updating feeds
Hello, I've tried reproducing this with 1.8.6-1 and wasn't able to reproduce this. Is this bug still a problem for you? And if so, can you try installing the liferea-dbg package and grabbing a useful backtrace? Thanks. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

No it has been there for quite some time now, but I finally took the time to use liferea-dbg only today (and so far it had only crash once).

Moreover, it's code that has not changed since two years ago. - netio.c:1095-1098 -- length = recvbufused - (nextstr-netbuf); body = g_malloc(length+1); memcpy(body, nextstr, length); body[length] = '\0'; -- The only thing there that's not quite kosher is that length is an unsigned int, but g_malloc wants an unsigned long. Even if those are different types on your arch there's no way I see that can be a problem, because as far as I can see from the code, length will always be less than 4096. This is weird. Indeed ... the randomness is also a hint that something strange is going on there. I would input that on faulty hardware if it was not the only app misbehaving on my laptop. -- (°> Nicolas Évrard / ) Liège - Belgique ^^ signature.asc Description: Digital signature
