Public bug reported: Applications using the function g_mime_header_list_register_writer() with a NULL third arg crash with a double-free error. The bug has been fixed in the GMime package a long time ago, see <https://git.gnome.org/browse/gmime/tree/ChangeLog>:
---8<--------------------------------------------------------------------- 2014-07-18 Jeffrey Stedfast <[email protected]> * gmime/gmime-header.c (g_mime_header_list_register_writer): g_hash_table_remove() will g_free() the key for us, so don't do it ourselves (will result in a double-free). ---8<--------------------------------------------------------------------- Please apply the fix to 16.04 LTS... (currently installed for me is libgmime-2.6-0 ver. 2.6.20-1). ** Affects: gmime2.6 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1654579 Title: gmime crash with a double free error in g_mime_header_list_register_writer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gmime2.6/+bug/1654579/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
