Subject: Segfault in dvbv5-scan
Date: Sat, 06 Aug 2016 22:34:30 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4767396.pAn5xf8Txs@acerpc.lan> (raw)

Hello,

I recently got segmentation faults when using dvbv5-scan (dvbv5-scan 
-l UNIVERSAL -S1 /usr/share/dvbv5/dvb-s/Astra-19.2E).

I found out that this happened due to (d->length < len) in int isdbt_desc_delivery_init for some transponder, which results in irrealistic d->num_freqs. I did not trace back why this happens, but suggest the patch below to get at least rid of the segfault.

Additionally I found a memory leak:
1. dvb-dev.c, dvb_dev_alloc: dvb is alloc'd, dvb->d is returned, the rest is never freed.


Regards
Georg
