Description

[Gilberto Ficara]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; it; rv:1.8.0.5) Gecko/20060719 Firefox/1.5.0.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; it; rv:1.8.0.5) Gecko/20060719 Firefox/1.5.0.5

I obtained this crash when viewing a page which contained a css directive with large value for font-size attribute.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open the example file

Actual Results:  
Firefox crashes

Expected Results:  
Correct rendering or maybe wrap the font-size to a fixed value...?


I'm using Gentoo mozilla-firefox-bin package.

Looks like it doesn't crash on Ubuntu's Firefox (checked with a friend of mine).

Comment 3

[Martijn Wargers (dead)]

Works for me, using:

This isn't security sensitive. X11 or gtk or whatever disagree with us and we quit.

should we just change the cross platform 5000 to 2000?

Comment 12

[Stuart Parmenter]

?

Comment 13

[Stuart Parmenter]

... if you want to change size(PR_MIN(aSize, 5000)) to size(PR_MIN(aSize, 2000)) that would be fine with me.  I don't like the current platform-specific limit

Patch rev. 1

See stuart's comments above -- just limit the font size to 2000 on all platforms (the PR_MIN in the constructor intializers)

clamp large font size everywhere

make static const and move inside the function.

Comment 17

[Vladimir Vukicevic [:vlad] [:vladv] (needinfo me, slow to respond)]

Checked in inside function.  Clamped to 2000 now.
