294466 - Firefox buffer overrun detected c++ runtime library internal state

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Marc]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.2; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

When entering the url http://www.dr-klein.de/Baufinanzierung/index.htm in 
Firefox, I see the top of the page and then I get a messagebox from Firefox 
which tells me

"Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library"

"Buffer overrun detected!

Program: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe

A buffer overrun has been detected which has corrupted the program's internal 
state. The program cannot safely continue execution and must now be terminated."

Now I can click only on "Ok" and all open Firefox windows are closed.

This happens with a fresh installation on Server 2003 with SP1 and Data 
Execution Prevention. Perhaps that's causing the problem. I have this on some 
more sites also. e.g. www.cdr24.de. But on this site, it's not always 
reproducable for me.

I have installed the talkback function, but it's not working.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Firefox
2. Paste the URL into Firefox http://www.dr-klein.de/Baufinanzierung/index.htm
3. Press Enter

Actual Results:  
See Details

Expected Results:

wfm with win2k3 32bit SP1 and FF1.0.4 and enabled DEP (AMD64).
Reporter: 
Are you using an official Mozilla.org Firefox build ?
Do you get the same if you start Firefox in the safemode ?

> Are you using an official Mozilla.org Firefox build ?

Yes. It's the latest official release from Mozilla.org. Version 1.0.4


> Do you get the same if you start Firefox in the safemode ?

Yes. Makes no difference for me. I get the crash also in safemode.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.

A bug can be resolved FIXED if the patch is known which got checked in to fix it.
Here you simply can't reproduce the bug, but don't know what was fixed in the code, so the resolution will be: WORKSFORME

[Hermann Schwab]

resolving WFM according to reporter's comment 11

Comment 14

[Marc]

The problem still persists.
I found a small hint what's wrong.
It's MSVCR70.DLL v7.00.9466.0
This DLL is loaded on my pc and there is no reason why. FF runs without this DLL also and doesn't produce this error than. On another computer, FF doesn't load this DLL.

Comment 14 sounds like a system problem, not a problem with Firefox. If you have are still having problems, please consult the forums.

Resolving this bug back as WFM.

What is the URL for Dr. Klein suppose to do?  It looks like junk.  How is it suppose to help with the debug situation?
