Bug ID: 85055
Summary: warn on accessing free memory
Product: gcc
Version: 7.3.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: matthew at wil dot cx
Target Milestone: ---
GCC knows that a pointer passed to free() is no longer valid, but it misses an
opportunity to warn here:
char f(char *foo)
{
free(foo);
return foo[0];
}
