Firefox 1.5.0.9 segmentation fault on some ASP login pages

[ryukun]

Binary package hint: firefox

My Firefox (1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.9-0ubuntu0.6.06) suddenly crashes (closes itself) when I try to open some ASP login pages. I've got the output of "Segmentation Fault" in terminal during the crash.

To reproduce, you can try to open one of them:

http://sozluk.sourtimes.org/login.asp
http://www.harmankoy.org/forum/admin.asp

I tried an official build of 1.5.0.9, there is no problem with it. I downgraded to Ubuntu's 1.5.0.3 for the time being, there is no problem with it either.

Thank you for the bug report. Could you please install the firefox-dbg package and try to obtain a backtrace (or crash report) by following the instructions on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs This will greatly aid us in tracking down your problem.

Which flash package do you have installed?
Which Java package do you have installed?
Which firefox extensions do you have installed?

I tried myself and I asked other users to try to reproduce your bug, but everything worked well.

Probably is something related your profile.

Did you experienced other crashes since the first time?

Cheers ;)

Same problem here with opening some links,
Firefox 1.5.0.9, updated yesterday (using ubuntu's update)

the links in the bug description don't crash FF,

but this link: http://www.nukezone.nu/clan.asp?Action=Clans
does, (you have to be logged in)
downloading the html file, and opening that with firefox does not make it crash (close)

on ubuntu-nl-request ther was something similar being reported where
www.nu.nl made firefox 2.0.0.1 crash

[Jens (jens.timmerman)]

installed firefox-dbg

tried with new profile, still crashes
output from command line is:

sh-3.1$ firefox
Segmentation fault
sh-3.1$

output of the following command attached.
firefox -g 2>&1 | tee ~/Desktop/gdb-firefox.log

I just get a (gdb) command line, don't know what to do now...
firefox doesn't open.

Thank you for your replies.

Firefox doesn't crash with a new profile.

My installed and enabled extensions are NoScript 1.1.4.5.061221, Adblock Plus 0.7.2.3, Download Statusbar 0.9.4.5.1, Tab Mix Plus 0.3.5.3, Fasterfox 2.0.0, StumbleUpon 2.89, ScrapBook 1.2.0.8, Context Search 0.2.1, English (GB) Language Pack 1.5.0.1.

Flash Beta2 9.0.21.7 and sun-java5-jre are installed.

I installed firefox-dbg, output was the same with Keneo's. Only terminal output is still "Segmentation fault".

Ok, I think the bug is situated in the password manager.

I tried again with a new profile, but without using the option 'remember password'

it dit not crash.

now I noticed that the page I was trying to open has the same title as the page where I login (and where FF remembers the password)
there was alsoe a field called password, but no username field.

Tried somethings out, and came with 2 files that make FF crash
(see attachment)

open file1.html, give in a random username/password and use the 'remeber password' option (only appears if the files are not localy opened)
and the file wil lead you to file2.html will has a password field, but no username field, and will make FF crash...

[Jens (jens.timmerman)]

here is file2.html

[Jens (jens.timmerman)]

and a working example :)

fill in username/pw, klik remember, and be prepeared to see Firefox close

My Firefox closes too in the Keneo's working example. It works! :)
