Description of problem: I tried to navigate and download some something from the itu web site, and lyn crashed. Reproducible - see steps below. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): lynx-2.8.9-0.8.dev5.fc23.x86_64 openssl-libs-1.0.2d-2.fc23.x86_64 How reproducible: at least twice (likely 3rd time when I repeat the below now, simultaneously from lynx and firefox to document the steps). Steps to Reproduce: 1. lynx http://www.itu.int/ITU-T/studygroups/com17/languages/ 2. select http://www.itu.int/rec/T-REC-X/e 3. scroll down to X.509 and go to it. 4. select "X.509 (10/12)" 5. select the download link. Actual results: --- A Fatal error has occurred in Lynx Ver. 2.8.9dev.5 Please notify your system administrator to confirm a bug, and if confirmed, to notify the lynx-dev list. Bug reports should have concise descriptions of the command and/or URL which causes the problem, the operating system name with version number, the TCPIP implementation, and any other relevant information. Do NOT mail the core file if one was generated. Lynx now exiting with signal: 4 Aborted (core dumped) --- Expected results: download file Additional info: abrt-cli report had not been working for a while for me now, otherwise I'd just go that route to auto-report this. Just experienced a 3rd crash, It crash inside openssl (gdb) bt #0 0x00007efbf6b14a98 in raise () from /usr/lib64/libc.so.6 #1 0x00007efbf6b1669a in abort () from /usr/lib64/libc.so.6 #2 0x00005655555dccc1 in FatalProblem () #3 <signal handler called> #4 0x00007efbf7152c68 in aesni_cbc_sha256_enc () from /usr/lib64/libcrypto.so.10 #5 0x00007efbf71d035e in aesni_cbc_hmac_sha256_cipher () from /usr/lib64/libcrypto.so.10 #6 0x00007efbf75303a7 in tls1_enc () from /usr/lib64/libssl.so.10 #7 0x00007efbf7522729 in do_ssl3_write () from /usr/lib64/libssl.so.10 #8 0x00007efbf7522b45 in ssl3_write_bytes () from /usr/lib64/libssl.so.10 #9 0x000056555564e7be in HTLoadHTTP () #10 0x000056555564c73e in HTLoadDocument () #11 0x00005655555d9cb0 in getfile () #12 0x00005655555e06bf in mainloop () #13 0x00005655555b2e87 in main () (gdb)
I cannot reproduce the issue with a slightly different version of lynx (lynx-2.8.9-0.3.dev1.fc21.x86_64 and openssl-1.0.2d-1.fc23.x86_64) Can you reproduce the issue with wget on the https URL that the lynx downloads when you select the Download link? I suppose this is caused by lynx overwriting the heap which then later causes the OpenSSL library to crash.
Oh I see you can reproduce it with wget and it is not a segfault but SIGILL crash, so indeed this is not a lynx problem. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1278194 ***
I didn't try to reproduce with wget - I tried wget because lynx didn't work :-). It is curious that lynx only fails when I tried downloading, but not generally navigating though.
