Description Stefan Nordhausen 2004-02-14 14:35:15 UTC
Version-Release number of selected component:
rpm version 3.06


How reproducible:
Take a valid rpm package and change the byte at offset 0x4F from 0x05
to 0x00. Running "rpm -i <packagename>" will result in segfault. If
you do "rpm -qp <packagename>" you will get "-(null)-(null)" as output.

Similarly, changing the byte at offset 0x04 to 0x02 will result in
"memory alloc returned NULL." when "rpm -i <packagename>" is run.
Interestingly, "rpm --checksig <packagename>" is still happy with this
packet.


Expected results:
rpm should report a broken archive.

Comment 1 Jeff Johnson 2004-02-14 19:46:03 UTC
This is rpm-3.0.6? Dead and gone, no support.

Please reopen this bug if not rpm-3.0.6.
