From 7b7f39eae6ab0bbcc68d3c42a5b23595880e528f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Riesen Date: Mon, 28 Apr 2008 22:23:35 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Fix use after free() in builtin-fetch As reported by Dave Jones: Since master.kernel.org updated to latest, I noticed that I could crash git-fetch by doing this.. export KERNEL=/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ git fetch $KERNEL/torvalds/linux-2.6 master:linus (gdb) bt 0 0x000000349fd6d44b in free () from /lib64/libc.so.6 1 0x000000000048f4eb in transport_unlock_pack (transport=0x7ce530) at transport.c:811 2 0x000000349fd31b25 in exit () from /lib64/libc.so.6 3 0x00000000004043d8 in handle_internal_command (argc=3, argv=0x7fffea4449f0) at git.c:379 4 0x0000000000404547 in main (argc=3, argv=0x7fffea4449f0) at git.c:443 5 0x000000349fd1c784 in __libc_start_main () from /lib64/libc.so.6 6 0x0000000000403ef9 in ?? () 7 0x00007fffea4449d8 in ?? () 8 0x0000000000000000 in ?? () I then remembered, my .bashrc has this.. export MALLOC_PERTURB_=$(($RANDOM % 255 + 1)) which is handy for showing up such bugs.
