New submission from egreen <egr...@operamail.com>: The strxfrm function in the locale module can potentially raise a MemoryError.
The failing malloc is in Modules/_localemodule.c, line 291. This is because the variable n0 of type Py_ssize_t is passed to PyArg_ParseTuple, which expects an int when PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN is not defined. Patch attached, which also fixes an unrelated memory leak. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: strxfrm_MemoryError.patch keywords: patch messages: 93728 nosy: egreen, loewis severity: normal status: open title: locale.strxfrm raises MemoryError type: crash versions: Python 3.1, Python 3.2 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file15078/strxfrm_MemoryError.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7080> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
