Details

Created by David Goodenough (dpg@ix.netcom.com) on Thursday, May 21, 1998 11:14:28 PM PDT Additional Details : This bug can be reproduced by selecting "about" from the "help" menu. The call to SECNAV_SSLCapabilities at line 2344 in winfe\fegui.cpp expects a return value that is a malloc'ed string, such as would be returned from strdup(). Since the current SECNAV_SSLCapabilities at line 242 in navstubs.c returns NULL, this causes a crash at line 2346 in fegui.cpp. To fix this, alter the return statement in SECNAV_SSLCapabilities to be ``return(strdup(""));''
Setting all current Open/Normal to M4.
Assignee: jsw → don
This should be assigned to a windows FE engineer. The code in the FE needs to be able to handle NULL return.
Re-assigned to delon@netscape.com. Delon, who gets these Mozilla classic FE bugs now?
