[Bug 1398828] Re: nautilus crashed with SIGSEGV in rate_limiter_free()

 

This looks more like a glib2.0 bug. The whole stacktrace is made of the
functions from gio or glib.

First g_hash_table_foreach_remove_or_steal function calls
g_hash_table_remove_node [1], then it gets to rate_limiter_free
function, whose argument ("limiter") equals 0 at that moment for some
reason. Right after that it crashes on dereferencing NULL pointer [2].

I can't explain why all that happens, it's all internal glib/gio stuff,
but I'm pretty sure something should be corrected in that code.

The similar report from Fedora 20 where glib2.0 is 2.38 and it's another
application (caja) that crashes also confirms that the problem is in
glib2.0.
