Description Paul Gideon Dann 2013-05-09 11:55:07 UTC

Random crashes (SIGSEGV) from imap resource.  I think this is actually a stack overflow.  The backtrace is very long, repeating through the same methods again and again.  Here's the bottom:

I know this doesn't look all that useful, but I'm happy to perform any testing that's required.  Also just let me know what binaries you'd like debug symbols installed for to make the backtrace more useful.  Right now, I've had to set up a cron job that checks the resource is still running every minute and re-launches it if not (akonadi generally doesn't notice it's dies, and doesn't re-spawn it).

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
Wait...it crashes every half hour or so.


Expected Results:  
It shouldn't crash.

Comment 1 Martin Bříza 2013-06-04 13:17:11 UTC

This bug is also reported for Fedora 18 on https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=891620 .
The bug is appearing quite often, according to https://retrace.fedoraproject.org/faf/reports/43249/ it has hundreds of crash reports.
Happens only on x86_64 version of the system.

From what I have seen, it's caused by a SSL handshake error (which doesn't have its error code handled in KTcpSocket... as all the errors added with Qt4.3 and later) which then causes the infinite recursion that can be seen in the backtrace. (There are more readable ones in the linked report than from the original reporter here).

Comment 4 Paul Gideon Dann 2013-06-12 12:17:28 UTC

I'm afraid this commit doesn't fix my crash.  I applied it to kdebase, compiled + installed, logged out and back in (for good measure), but the crashes are still occurring, with the same backtrace.

Comment 5 Martin Bříza 2013-06-12 12:21:28 UTC

Yes, it doesn't fix that, it needs handling in the KIMAP library, too. This is basically preparation to do that.

Comment 6 Daniel Vrátil 2013-06-14 19:46:25 UTC

Note that there is a similar bug 316840 which does not crash, but causes an endless loop of connects and disconnects. I can reproduce it on my machine and it's caused by the same SSL issue.

Comment 7 Kevin Ottens 2013-11-16 07:27:26 UTC

The IMAP resource has a new maintainer, reassigning to him.

Comment 8 Christian Mollekopf 2013-11-19 13:12:51 UTC

I'm pretty sure this has been fixed in c3d8ea0 (4.11.3).
If not, please reopen.
