commit affec03b713c82c43a5b025dddc21bde3334f41e Author: Florian Weimer Date: Mon Nov 26 20:06:37 2018 +0100 malloc: tcache: Validate tc_idx before checking for double-frees [BZ #23907] The previous check could read beyond the end of the tcache entry array. If the e->key == tcache cookie check happened to pass, this would result in crashes. diff --git a/malloc/malloc.c b/malloc/malloc.c index c6b0282e783eaeea..13c52f376859562d 100644 --- a/malloc/malloc.c +++ b/malloc/malloc.c @@ -4159,33 +4159,33 @@ _int_free (mstate av, mchunkptr p, int have_lock) #if USE_TCACHE { size_t tc_idx = csize2tidx (size); - - /* Check to see if it's already in the tcache. */ - tcache_entry *e = (tcache_entry *) chunk2mem (p); - - /* This test succeeds on double free.
