[jadmin] jabberd 1.4.4: Segmentation fault!!!

[Barry Webb]

Hi,

I recently had a similar problem with jabberd 1.4.3 and found the same post on the Debian bugs list. (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=337526)

I made the following changes to the source code and it seems to have cured the problem.

Mod_admin.c
-----------
Function : _mod_admin_browse 
Change variable buff from  'char buff[10]' to 'char buff[128]'

Function : _mod_admin_browse 
Change variable buff from  'char buff[10]' to 'char buff[128]'

Mod_last.c
----------
Function : mod_last_set
Change variable str from 'char str[10]' to 'char str[16]'

Mod_offline.c
-------------
Function : mod_offline_message
Change variable str from 'char str[10]' to 'char str[16]'

Function : mod_offline_out_available
Change variable str from 'char str[10]' to 'char str[16]'

I hope that is helpful.

Baz

	I installed jabberd1.4.4 and I get "Segmentation fault" error when I try to register a new user:
	I put the following in the stream:
	 
	<iq id='reg2' type='set'>
	  <query xmlns='jabber:iq:register'>
	    <username>jabberuser</username>
	    <password>secret</password> 
	    <name>myName</name>
	    <email>email at domain.com</email>
	  </query>
	</iq>
	At this point connection is closed, jabberd stops and says "Segmentation fault".
	I found similar bug report: 
	Bug#337526: jabber: Segmentation fault if compiled with gcc-4.0 <http://groups.google.com/group/linux.debian.bugs.dist/browse_thread/thread/888876c025b34927/5c0ebe7bb8f9eac2?lnk=st&q=Bug%2523337526&rnum=2#5c0ebe7bb8f9eac2> , but it is 
	marked as done <http://groups.google.com/group/linux.debian.bugs.rc/browse_thread/thread/5daac5855e63db63/dd0071bd8ed04f71?lnk=st&q=Bug%2523337526&rnum=1#dd0071bd8ed04f71> :  fixed 1.4.3-3.1 (I use 1.4.4).
	How can I fix this?
	I use: Linux version 2.6.16.13-4-default (gcc version 4.1.0 (SUSE Linux))
	
	Thanks in advance, Daniel.
