New submission from Lorenz Quack <d...@amberfisharts.com>: The C-API function "PyUnicode_AsUnicode(PyObject *unicode)" does not check the argument for NULL pointers. It passes it directly to the macro "PyUnicode_Check(op)" which then crashes when trying to access "Py_TYPE(op)".
I marked this as Python 2.7 because I checked this on trunk but I assume that this bug is present in all versions. The attached patch fixes this issue. ---------- files: PyUnicode_AsUnicode.patch keywords: patch messages: 100809 nosy: donlorenzo severity: normal status: open title: PyUnicode_AsUnicode doesn't check for NULL pointer versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file16520/PyUnicode_AsUnicode.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8113> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
