Category: Python Interpreter Core Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 7 Submitted By: Michael Hudson (mwh) Assigned to: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Summary: lax error-checking in new-in-2.4 marshal stuff Initial Comment: I realise one of the points of the TYPE_STRINGREF and so on stuff was efficiency, but: >>> marshal.loads('R') # TYPE_STRINGREF == 'R' Segmentation fault ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Michael Hudson (mwh) Date: 2005-04-13 11:05 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=6656 While I have your attention: >>> marshal.loads("", 1) Segmentation fault This is the guilty line: if (!PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "s#|i:loads", &s, &n)) there's no pointer corresponding to the optional integer argument. I'd just fix this, but I have too many local changes to make it easy :( ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Date: 2005-04-11 22:25 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 I agree, and will try to work on a patch before 2.4.2. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1180997&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
