Description Don Patterson 2004-09-27 17:35:12 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET 
CLR 1.1.4322)

Description of problem:
Using Fedora development (Rawhide): 
open /etc/selinux/strict/src/policy/policy.conf  then immediately open
/etc/selinux/strict/policy/policy.18 and apol immediately crashes with
"*** glibc detected *** corrupted double-linked list:" and a hex 
number. 



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
setools-1.4.1 and setools-gui-1.4.1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.start apol
2.Using Fedora development (Rawhide) apol running in targeted 
enforcing mode (although I doubt that matters) 
open /etc/selinux/strict/src/policy/policy.conf 
3.then immediately open /etc/selinux/strict/policy/policy.18 and 

apol immediately crashes with:
"*** glibc detected *** corrupted double-linked list:" and a hex 
number.    

Expected Results:  apol should have closed the policy successfully.

Comment 4 Don Patterson 2004-10-06 20:35:20 UTC
Dan, this is an updated and thoroughly tested patch for the setools-
1.4.1 package. The previous patch is known to cause a problem with 
rendering allow rules in apol. Thanks.

Comment 5 Rahul Sundaram 2005-08-13 20:06:38 UTC

setting priority to high since patch is included. Has this been incorporated yet?

Comment 6 Daniel Walsh 2005-08-14 19:48:21 UTC
