Bug ID: 108514 Summary: ASAN at -O0 missed a stack-use-after-scope Product: gcc Version: 13.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: sanitizer Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: shaohua.li at inf dot ethz.ch CC: dodji at gcc dot gnu.org, dvyukov at gcc dot gnu.org, jakub at gcc dot gnu.org, kcc at gcc dot gnu.org, marxin at gcc dot gnu.org Target Milestone: --- For the following code, ASAN at -O0 and -Os missed the stack-use-after-scope, while other opt levels caught it. This issue is really concerning as it appears at -O0.
