| Summary | 0003584: Crash when 'who' command was sent by a linked server | ||||
| Description | Hello, when I send 'who' through an linked server (i.e. IRCServices Server), UnrealIRCD crashes. | ||||
| 3rd party modules | |||||
| has duplicate | 0003688 | closed | The IRCd crashes on "WHO" command. |
|
|
Perhaps you should explain in detail what you mean I.e do u mean if ur linked to let say irc.hello.com you being irc.boss.com /who * crashes, or?.. |
|
|
Hello, i.e. I send 'WHO' through rootserv's raw function /msg rootserv raw who This will make the Service Sever send 'WHO' to the server its linked to. Not talking about the user /who command here. |
|
|
This is because WHO is a client command, and is not meant to be sent over links. Your Unreal crashes because there is no need to process server2server commands for validity. You are sending an invalid command, so when Unreal tries to process it, Unreal crashes. This is why it says all over the place to NOT use OS RAW (or equiv) |
|
|
Such "crashes" are explained in bugs 0002807, 0001132, and 0001089 0002807 has the most information about it. |
|
|
Well, guess thats a reason to not fix these "crashes"..</sarcasm> |
|
|
http://bugs.unrealircd.org/view.php?id=3211 As you can see this was already reported, and despite being a crash bug was rejected as "invalid" Although from what I was once told is an easy fix too, simply to check whether the source of the WHO is a server or a client, instead of assuming it's a client and then running a check to see what channels said "client" is in (which is where it crashes) |
|
|
To filter out RAW data from user-mistakes may be 'Easy' in some cases to catch stuff, but shouldn't even be necessary as the mistakes shouldn't even happen. A user shouldn't even be using RAW for such stuff if they obviously don't know what it will do, in my opinion at least :P So to ask for a 'Fix' on such a thing seems a tad silly? |
|
|
This won't be fixed. This is the exact reason why people should not play with RAW commands - it crashes the server! OS RAW was designed for developer use while developing services and reproducing servies/ircd bugs, not for your OperServ to WHO users on the network. |
