Summary: 'hard lockup of wine' provoker
Product: Wine
Version: 1.1.33
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: -unknown
AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
ReportedBy: herrold at owlriver.com
wine-1.1.33-0.el5.mh (Mike Harris packaging for CentOS 5)
see: http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories for a pointer
Running the following in a CentOS 5 xen domU instance locks it up hard and
kills networking
wine explorer
I have not yet reproduced, but assume I will be able to once I regain control
of the unit.
Obviously, in reading further in the documentation, it seems that the file
explorer is not so invoked, but it seems interesting that I could so provoke a
lockup
It may have security and DDoS implications that an end application is able to
take down a machine thus.
It seems that the command interpreter should check the existence of a binary,
and catch and return when not a proper command.
