Hi Michael, this is related to bug 96888. I thought you could be interested in this issue...
Comment 4 Michael Meeks 2018-12-12 09:23:24 UTC
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/65005 tdf#122020 - avoid nullptr deref.

Any chance of testing that & chasing it in Xisco ? =) The good news is that holding a VclPtr here turns this from a free-memory-read/write to a simple nullptr de-reference that we can correctly fix =) so ... progress really.

Thanks !

Hi again,
Actually forget my previous comment about the hang... it no longer hangs with a clean profile.
So the crash is no longer reproducible in this case:

1. Unzip attachment 146893 [details] from bug 121606
2. Add the database to the Registered Databases
3. Make sure Data Sources is displayed ( View - Data sources )
4. Open FieldsFrom_DataOnTwoSheets_PW_Test1234.odt -> authentication dialog is prompted
5. Cancel it
6. Close LibreOffice

but it is with

1. Unzip attachment 146893 [details] from bug 121606
2. Add the database to the Registered Databases
3. Make sure Data Sources is displayed ( View - Data sources )
4. Open FieldsFrom_DataOnTwoSheets_PW_Test1234.odt -> authentication dialog is prompted
5. Click Ok with the wrong credentials
6. Click Ok on the new dialog
7. Close LibreOffice
-> Crash!

Would to be good to get the commit in if you can (from a gerrit button pressing perspective) - and to get a new trace for the next crash =)

Thanks !

gdb bt

On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today, I could reproduce this.
Since bt is different, I thought it may help here.
Comment 12 Caolán McNamara 2018-12-20 21:29:23 UTC
what I see is a PostUserEvent of DBTreeListBox::OnResetEntry with a SvTreeListEntry* pEntry as payload, then the DBTreeListBox is disposed and then the UserEvent arrives and the, by now deleted, pEntry is processed by the disposed DBTreeListBox

Comment 14 Michael Meeks 2018-12-20 22:16:04 UTC
Fair enough. I had hoped that the PostUserEvent - which (these days) can hold a VclPtr on the widget itself - would be able to survive in a valid but disposed state just nicely; (the true bReferenceLink to PostUserEvent) - so checking for isDisposed() or whatever might fly there. But of course cleaning up the event is cool tool.

Thanks Caolan !

Hi Caolán, Michael,
Thank you both for providing patches to fix this issue.
Seeing Caolán's patch is already cherry-picked to 6-2 and 6-1 in gerrit, i'm wondering, should michael's patch be cherry-picked as well?

Considering https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/65515/, I don't think so.

Comment 19 Caolán McNamara 2018-12-21 12:24:30 UTC
backport to 6-1 in gerrit.

yeah, the DBTreeListBox itself survives fine due to the VclPtr, but the SvTreeListEntry* pEntry arg doesn't and is bogus after the dispose. If the operations on it were moved inside the GetModel() check that would presumably have worked fine too.
