--- Comment #13 from Flupp <bugs.kde....@derflupp.e4ward.com> --- Created attachment 109116 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=109116&action=edit old synctex crashing okular 17.12 Unfortunately, okular might crash with old synctex files now. A problematic synctex file is attached. Note: Okular does not always crash with this file. I will attach a backtrace of a crashing trial and the output of a non-crashing trial. Used command: gdb --ex run --ex backtrace --ex 'set confirm off' --ex quit --args okular empty.pdf |& tee "$(date -Is)" Okular version: branch Applications/17.12 commit 02a4cfb26afc822777377c9539473f757b277490 I guess, this is not really a bug in okular, but in the synctex parser you just use. Please tell me, if I shall report this bug again for the synctex project. Also, I start to seriously doubt the code quality of the synctex parser. Assuming the code quality is really bad, I could imagine that the unconditional loading of synctex files together with pdfs poses a security risk. However, I do not know how okular should deal with this. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
