Description Todd Florman 2008-05-31 08:30:02 UTC
mail/milter-bogom will core after running for several days, and other times only a few hours after last restart.  I am running this with the latest ports version of postfix (2.5.1 I believe) and when its running, the milter operates as expected.

I did run a backtrace on the core and here are the last few lines...

#128 0xbf7fcfec in ?? ()
#129 0x28201b00 in ?? ()
#130 0x00100000 in ?? ()
#131 0x00001000 in ?? ()
#132 0xbf2f9000 in ?? ()
Cannot access memory at address 0xbf3f9000

How-To-Repeat: Run the milter for several days on a not so busy postfix mail server and it should happen.  I have a friend who was trying this milter out on freebsd 6.2 and it too would core periodically on his machine as well.

I've talked with bogom author and he told me postfix is not a supported
MTA. He told me last time he checked postfix's libmilter support wasn't
complete enough for bogom.

If you want, you can recompile the port with debug support (CFLAGS=-g) and
send a backtrace with that binary. I'll try to see what can i do, but i
don't promise anything.

Regards.

The software author is aware of the problem, but claims not to support this 
configuration.  The maintainer has volunteered to try to look at it.
Comment 5 Victor Balada Diaz 2008-06-30 17:00:16 UTC
With the useful information and coredumps provided by Todd I tracked down the
issue to an insufficient pointer check in bogom's code. I told it to the author
and he released a new version

Attached is the update to the port which fixes this issue.

Regards.
