Title:
apport-cli crashes if a hook provides a python list which is a
directory w/o files
Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
I was reviewing an apport hook for somebody and noticed that apport-
cli would crash when you try to save a report (option K) if the apport
hook does something odd. As an example:
1) mkdir -p /tmp/directory1/directory2
2) modify an apport package hook to contain the following:
contents = os.listdir('/tmp/directory1')
report['DirContents'] = contents
3) run apport-cli ubuntu-release-upgrader (package hook I modified)
4) observe the following crash
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/apport-cli", line 370, in <module>
if not app.run_argv():
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/ui.py", line 645, in run_argv

f = open(v[0], 'rb') # file name
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'directory2'
If DirContents is a folder that contains at least one file we see the
following error raised instead.
TypeError: value for key DirContents must be a string,
CompressedValue, or a file reference
