---------------------------------
Summary: Seg fault due to missing NULL return value check of
getprotobyname
Key: PROTON-712
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-712
Project: Qpid Proton
Issue Type: Bug
Components: proton-c
Affects Versions: 0.7
Reporter: Sahir Hoda
There are several places proton-c makes calls to getprotobyname and
dereferences the return value without checking for NULL first. Documentation
for getprotobyname indicates it can return NULL if there was an error. We have
seen seg faults in testing where getprotobyname returned NULL.
Attached is a patch that adds some simple error checking to the getprotobyname
call.
