There appears to be a potential buffer overflow that manifests itself in less subtle ways in the Windows build. I am using Visual C++ Express 2010.
I've just spent about an hour or two trying to figure out where the buffer overflow was, but couldn't find it yet. The crash happens in sec_verify_tls, but doesn't consistently crash at the same place, depending on how you start changing the code in that area. My guess is that there is a buffer overflow somewhere before that part of the code, that will corrupt certain parts of memory, but the effects of the corruption are only seen down the road when sec_verify_tls gets called. I recall we once had a similar problem, where the buffer overflow was caused by a static length used for a certain key size. With certain servers, the key was longer than the static length, meaning that the buffer overflow would only occur when connecting to certain servers. I'm connecting to Windows 7 SP1, so maybe we're facing a similar problem again. Has anybody else been experiencing similar issues?
