software used: Netscape Communicator 4.73 on Linux 2.2.14 with Shockwave Flash 4.0 r12 today, while browsing http://www.epiccenter.com/EpicCenter/custom/260/frame.html, something strange happened: my netscape crashed (well, it's not that strange:) and libsafe reported this: ===================================================================== Jun 4 13:16:58 zion libsafe.so[27786]: version 1.3 Jun 4 13:16:58 zion libsafe.so[27786]: detected an attempt to write across stack boundary. Jun 4 13:16:58 zion libsafe.so[27786]: terminating /usr/local/netscape/netscape Jun 4 13:16:58 zion libsafe.so[27786]: overflow caused by memcpy() ===================================================================== and I can reproduce it. I doubt the site in cause is evil... must be netscape or shockwave's fault can you reproduce it ? N: please excuse my bad english, I'm french.. and I'm learning dvorak :) -- Turn the other cheek and I'll break your fuckin chin 0x68839421 [PGP] 26995402 [ICQ]
