Fixed In Version: gtkhtml3-4.8.5-2.el7 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: crash could happen when a link insert was initiated in the HTML message format Consequence: inserting an image and right after that a link could cause a crash due to no object type checking and casting an object into a type it was not, thus accessing object structure members with incorrect values. Fix: proper type checking had been added Result: application doesn't crash when a link is inserted right after inserting an image

The problem was that there was no type-checking, thus even the cursor was at an image object the code cast the structure to a text object, thus it was reading data which was not there. I added type-checking and fixed a cursor positioning, thus the changes in the URL description don't delete the image object.
