Hi,
We found the cause and fix for a bug or two that we've been hunting
for months.
Wifidog would crash sporadically every now and then (usually at
places where traffic is pretty high).
If sent something like this:
GET /xxxxxx?novariable_or_anything
(there's no var=value pattern). Wifidog will segfault.
And also if you send a "." in the QUERY_STRING, and there's not more
than 5 characters after.
GET /xxxxxx?xxxxxxx.xx
I got that while I was starting wifidog somewhere, a client would
keep sending a request like that and wifidog would crash every time.
The bug is in libhttpd, and the fix has just been committed to CVS on
the 3rd and 1.1.3_beta1 released (just now), with all the new
features that Mina merged recently.
Try it to achieve ultimate (ok... there might be a few more bugs)
stability :P, and give feedback, as always! ;)
(you can find the ipkg for whiterussian on sourceforge.)
