--- Begin Message ---Package: libc6 Version: 2.7-11 Severity: normal glibc's snprintf function malfunctions (segfault) when its internal memory allocation fails. FYI, this bug is new in libc6 2.7-11. I noticed because it provokes a new failure in coreutils' printf-surprise test. This is not a problem when using rawhide's glibc-2.8. $ cat snprintf-test-debbug.c #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { char buf[200]; char *fmt = argv[1]; if (argc < 2) return 1; return snprintf (buf, sizeof buf, fmt, 1); } $ gcc snprintf-test-debbug.c $ zsh -c 'ulimit -v 5000; ./a.out %$[5*2**20]d' zsh: segmentation fault zsh -c 'ulimit -v 5000; ./a.out %$[5*2**20]d' [Exit 139 (SEGV)] -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-1-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libc6 depends on: ii libgcc1 1:4.3.0-4 GCC support library libc6 recommends no packages. -- debconf information: glibc/upgrade: true glibc/restart-failed: glibc/restart-services:
