Description of problem: When I try to connect to a remote KVM virtual machine with SPICE, remote-viewer crashes after authentication with the following error: *** glibc detected *** remote-viewer: double free or corruption (out): 0x0000000000d90f70 *** Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): virt-viewer-0.5.4-2.fc18.x86_64 How reproducible: Try to connect to a remote KVM virtual machine with SPICE Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to connect to a remote KVM virtual machine with spice 2. Authentication dialog appears and password is typed in 3. Program crashes Actual results: The program crashes Expected results: It should connect and provide a display to the remote VM. Additional info: Luckily, spicy is still working for me so I'm not stranded.
I was able to duplicate this bug on a different machine with the same install (Fedora 18 64bit) and package version. remote-viewer would connect and display properly until I enabled the password option at which point it would crash with the error previously mentioned.
