BRB, raising a CVE complaining the OOM killer exists.
- pamcake 10mo agoMemory leaks are usually (accurately) treated as DoS. OoM killer is a mitigation to contain them and not DoS the entire OS.
- worthless-trash 10mo agoI could be wrong. But operation by design isn't considered a bug.
- samus 10mo agoIt is if some other condition is violated that is more important. Then the design might have to be reconsidered.
- suspended_state 10mo agoIf it is faulty, then it's not a bug, it's a flaw.
- lfllfkddl 10mo agoIt is possible to design a security vulnerability.
- worthless-trash 10mo agoOh, now that is an exciting area.
- SSLy 10mo agoyou either get OOMed or next malloc fails and that's also going to wreck havoc
