Category: Python Interpreter Core Group: None >Status: Closed >Resolution: Duplicate Priority: 5 Submitted By: Jon Nelson (jnelson) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: crash in longobject (invalid memory access) Initial Comment: While debugging a memory consumption problem, I disable pymalloc and found a crasher in longobject.c, line 2518 (Python 2.4.1). The code currently reads: Py_XDECREF(a); Py_XDECREF(b); Py_XDECREF(c); Py_XDECREF(temp); if (b->ob_size > FIVEARY_CUTOFF) { for (i = 0; i < 32; ++i) Py_XDECREF(table[i]); } return (PyObject *)z; It *should* read: Py_XDECREF(a); Py_XDECREF(c); Py_XDECREF(temp); if (b->ob_size > FIVEARY_CUTOFF) { for (i = 0; i < 32; ++i) Py_XDECREF(table[i]); } Py_XDECREF(b); return (PyObject *)z; because without the change you clearly access "b" *after* freeing it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Tim Peters (tim_one) Date: 2005-10-05 16:54 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=31435 This is a duplicate of bug 1238681 (& already fixed). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1314182&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
