Bug Description

Sane finds the scanner, but crashes even as root "glibc detected *** scanimage: double free or corruption" when attempting to open USB scanner on multifunction (print/scan/copy/fax) Samsung SCX-4521F.

Using Intrepid AMD64.
Sane 1.0.14-6

Printer works fine after installing package from Samsung, trying to open scanner with Samsung software also results in crash.

sudo sane-find-scanner

  # sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the
  # result is different from what you expected, first make sure your
  # scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer.

  # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that
  # you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.

found USB scanner (vendor=0x04e8 [Samsung], product=0x3419 [SCX-4x21 Series]) at libusb:001:004
  # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by
  # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage.

  # Not checking for parallel port scanners.

  # Most Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports
  # can't be detected by this program.

Found after reinstalling using Samsung's software, I paid more attention to group policies during setup. Scanner works ok
