[Spice-devel] [PATCH spice-server 1/2] dcc: Fix NULL pointer dereference attempting to connect duplicate channels

[Frediano Ziglio]

You could easily trigger this issue using multiple monitors and
a modified client with this patch:

--- a/src/channel-main.c
+++ b/src/channel-main.c
@@ -1699,6 +1699,7 @@ static gboolean _channel_new(channel_new_t *c)
 {
     g_return_val_if_fail(c != NULL, FALSE);

+    if (c->type == SPICE_CHANNEL_DISPLAY) c->id = 0;
     spice_channel_new(c->session, c->type, c->id);

     g_object_unref(c->session);


This as g_initable_new in this case returns NULL (dcc.c).
