Description Andrew Brampton 2009-08-30 00:50:00 UTC
The port editor/nano segfaults on 8.0, when run:

> nano
Segmentation fault: 11 (core dumped)

I tracked this down to line 617 of rcfile.c where getline is called with an uninitalised argument. The fix is to initalise n to zero on a few lines above. The attached patch should fix this. I am also reporting this problem upstream.

Fix: Recompile with the attached patch, or run nano with the --ignorercfiles argument.

Patch attached with submission follows:
How-To-Repeat: Run nano with no arguments.

New Revision: 197752
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/197752

Log:
  Better glibc compatibility for getline/getdelim:
  
  - Tolerate applications that pass a NULL pointer for the buffer and
    claim that the capacity of the buffer is nonzero.
  
  - If an application passes in a non-NULL buffer pointer and claims the
    buffer has zero capacity, we should free (well, realloc) it
    anyway. It could have been obtained from malloc(0), so failing to
    free it would be a small memory leak.
