Package: gdb
Version: 7.4.1-3
The patch gdbinit-ownership.patch has the code:
+ if (statbuf.st_uid != getuid () || (statbuf.st_mode & S_IWOTH))
+ {
+ warning ("not using untrusted file \"%s\"", file);
+ fclose (stream);
+ do_cleanups (old_cleanups);
+ return;
+ }
on ubuntu that's triggering a double-free detection/corruption
warning; ( see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdb/+bug/1069897 )
My reading is that the code is wrong on debian as well, it just
isn't built with the options/libc that detect the corruption/double free.
My understanding is that the do_cleanups fclose's the stream as well
and that's where it blows up; I've submitted a patch in that ubuntu bug
that just removes that fclose; although someone who understands
gdb's cleanup system might want to check the other exist paths in that
routine as well.
