This does not seem security relevant, so making this public. It's a bit weird, though. The code called is
if (Map.Size() > sizeof(header)) { adler = adler32(adler, static_cast<const unsigned char *>(GetMap().Data()) + sizeof(header), GetMap().Size() - sizeof(header)); } so, the map should be readable there and for that size. Something is off with the size, though, it's about 140 TB. And the address is off, so the mmap data structure must have gone completely nuts. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1726789 Title: apt-get crashed with signal 7 in adler32_z() Status in apt package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: This error came up due to multiple reporting errors in my Ubuntu MATE installation.
