[Dovecot] dovecot-lda segfaults with some sieve scripts
Hello,
One account couldn't get emails all the sudden. dovecot-lda was crashing with "signal 11 (segmentation fault)". There was absolutely nothing in the dovecot logs, even with mail_debug=yes.
I found out that it was because of the following lines in a sieve script that were generated by a script generator (Ingo).
if true { keep; stop; }
I'm using the latest revision of pigeonhole with Dovecot 2.0.4.
Cheers,
Olivier

Hmm. I cannot reproduce this.
You should:
send your dovecot -n output.
If you can easily reproduce it: produce a backtrace of the problem
using gdb:
You can for instance run dovecot-lda manually as follows: gdb --args /usr/lib/dovecot-lda -p example-message.eml
And then:
- issue 'r' command
- (hopefully) see it crash with sigsegfault
- issue 'bt full' command and report the output back here
- also include a copy of the full Sieve script that you are using and
the example message.
You can also use core dumps if the problem is more transient: http://www.dovecot.org/bugreport.html

Stephan.
OK, I'll give the trace a try. Thanks for the instructions.
In the meantime, here is more info. The sieve script does a redirect and a local save. It works fine if only the redirect is in place.
if true { redirect "some.email@domain.com"; }
if true { keep; stop; }
I'm using mdbox as storage.
Cheers,
Olivier

Hello,
I tried to do a trace but it didn't seem to work.
(gdb) r Starting program: /usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -p example-message.eml (no debugging symbols found)...(no debugging symbols found)...(no debugging symbols found)...(no debugging symbols found)...(no debugging symbols founn
Program exited with code 0100.
Nothing gets delivered.

According to this, you have a require "imap4flags"; somewhere on top of your Sieve script right?

Also, it's apparently running in multiscript context:

Could you send me (not the list necessarily) full versions of all involved scripts (including those executed from sieve_before/sieve_after) and the output of dovecot -n?

Nope, only fileinto, but the sieve_before script does.
require "fileinto";
if true { redirect "ofutur@gmail.com"; }
if true { keep; stop; }

Indeed

There is just one.
require ["fileinto","imap4flags"];
if allof(header :contains "X-DSPAM-Result" "Spam", not header :contains "X-DSPAM-Reclassified" "Innocent") {
setflag "\Seen"; fileinto "INBOX/spam"; stop; }
keep;
I'll send doveconf -n separately

Stephan.

Hello Stephan,
This fix works. Thank you for that.
