Bug ID: 118455 Summary: The program crashes when synchronization with C-i/o is enabled; does not crash when it is disabled. Product: gcc Version: 11.4.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c++ Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: lluis.alemany.puig at gmail dot com Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 60137 --> https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=60137&action=edit The program I would like to report a possible bug, in a program that purposefully tries to access an out-of-bounds memory position in a std::vector. I know that accessing in such a position is UB, and so there is no guarantee concerning the behaviour of the program. Here I want to report that the program crashes only when synchronization between C and C++ i/o standard streams is disabled. GCC info at the end. The program is attached as a preprocessed file (main.ii) and the Makefile is ``` all: nosync sync nosync: main.cpp g++ -DNOSYNC main.cpp -o nosync sync: main.cpp g++ main.cpp -o sync ``` In a terminal, run `make`, and then run ``` $ ./sync # crashes $ ./nosync # does not crash ``` The program crashes with the following error message: ``` sync: malloc.c:2617: sysmalloc: Assertion `(old_top == initial_top (av) && old_size == 0) || ((unsigned long) (old_size) >= MINSIZE && prev_inuse (old_top) && ((unsigned long) old_end & (pagesize - 1)) == 0)' failed. Aborted (core dumped) ``` The program (as a plain .cpp file, i.e., not as a preprocessed file) is: ``` #include <iostream> #include <vector> using namespace std; int main() { #if defined NOSYNC std::ios_base::sync_with_stdio(false); #endif // this vector is not large enough to cause the crash // vector<int> v{1,2,3,4,5,6,2,3,4}; vector<int> v{1,2,3,4,5,6,2,3,4,5}; vector<int> r(v.size(), 0); for (int i = 0; i <= v.size(); ++i) { r[i] = v[i]; } for (int i = 0; i < r.size(); ++i) { cout << r[i] << ' '; } cout << '\n'; } ``` GCC info: Using built-in specs.
