Subject: [PATCH 0/1] http: Fix crash when passing malformed URL
Date: Wed, 16 Mar 2016 11:54:06 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1458125647-32707-1-git-send-email-anton.wuerfel@fau.de> (raw)
When passing a malformed URL to http_init() in http.c, git dies from a null
pointer dereference. An example for a malformed URL is http:/git-scm.com (note
the single slash after the protocol).
I could not reproduce this error within any functions of git - I just noticed it
during development of a git extension together with Phillip Raffeck.
