Issue #20691 has been updated by k0kubun (Takashi Kokubun). Backport changed from 3.1: DONTNEED, 3.2: DONTNEED, 3.3: REQUIRED to 3.1: DONTNEED, 3.2: DONTNEED, 3.3: DONE ruby_3_3 commit:ac8d50e52ebc2d2684914e56548a64a65830c16a. ---------------------------------------- Bug #20691: Use-after-free in WeakKeyMap#clear https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20691#change-109586 * Author: peterzhu2118 (Peter Zhu) * Status: Closed * Backport: 3.1: DONTNEED, 3.2: DONTNEED, 3.3: DONE ---------------------------------------- GitHub PR: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/11437 If the WeakKeyMap has been marked but sweeping hasn't started yet and we cann WeakKeyMap#clear, then there could be a use-after-free because we do not call rb_gc_remove_weak to remove the key from the GC. For example, the following code triggers use-after-free errors in Valgrind: ```ruby map = ObjectSpace::WeakKeyMap.new 1_000.times do 1_000.times do map[Object.new] = nil end map.clear end ``` Output from Valgrind: ``` ==61230== Invalid read of size 8 ==61230== at 0x25CAF8: gc_update_weak_references (default.c:5593) ==61230== by 0x25CAF8: gc_marks_finish (default.c:5641) ==61230== by 0x26031C:
