Title:
Evince crashes on an unreadable nonempty postscript file owned by root
Status in evince package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Package: evince
Version: 3.38.0-1
I run an up-to-date groovy 20.10.
This is how to reproduce the segfault:
root@host:/tmp# rm mwe.ps
root@host:/tmp# echo "test" > mwe.ps
root@host:/tmp# chmod g-rwx,o-rwx mwe.ps
root@host:/tmp# exit
logout
user@host:/tmp$ evince mwe.ps
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
An expected outcome would be a meaningful error message instead of a
crash. Thanks in advance for repairing this bug.
