Nicolas Lehuen commented on MODPYTHON-99: ----------------------------------------- Modifying util.c so that tuple_from_array_header and tuple_from_method_list return an empty tuple instead of None fixes the problem, but I still have t(o check whether this change won't break anything else. > accessing some request or server object members causes a segfault > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MODPYTHON-99 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-99 > Project: mod_python > Type: Bug > Components: core > Versions: 3.2 > Reporter: Jim Gallacher > Priority: Critical > Attachments: md-20051209.diff > > Martin Devara discovered a segfault when accessing some request object > members. For example: > def handler(req): > req.content_type = "text/plain" > req.write("EE\n") > a = getattr(req,"allowed_methods"); > return apache.OK > Futher investigation revealed problems with several getter functions in > requestobject.c and serverobject.c. The root of the problem seems to be > pointer dereferencing errors in the getter code. The affected functions and > the members which use them are: > src/requestobject.c > getreq_rec_ml > allowed_methods > getreq_rec_ah > content_languages > allowed_xmethods > src/serverobject.c > getsrv_recmbr_ah > names > wild_names > Martin has provided a patch to fix the bug. > (Thanks to Martin for tracking this down and providing the fix.) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
