Description Valentin Rothberg 2020-09-07 15:01:31 UTC

Description of problem:

`podman images` can panic when the storage contains an incoherent/incomplete image.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
podman 2.0.5 and following.


Steps to Reproduce:
Following the steps provided in https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/7444:

1. Start `podman build`.
2. Kill the build process during a build step.
3. Run `podman images`.

Actual results:

Panic.


Expected results:

Listing of images.

Additional info:

It's fixed upstream with https://github.com/containers/podman/pull/7554 and the referenced commit but we need a BZ to backport to 2.0. It seems fairly likely that build processes are killed manually by users, so I think we should get it fixed in RHEL as well.

Upstream PR (backport to v2.0): https://github.com/containers/podman/pull/7556

Comment 5 Daniel Walsh 2020-09-09 12:14:46 UTC

Yes this should be fixed in RHEL8.3
We have another bunch of fixes that RHEL QE is finding going in, so we should fix them as breaking existing functionality.
