Hi Marcel,


I cannot reproduce this using a fresh Trunk image (Update 19541, VM 201912311458), because privateKeyPair is nil by default, but the following looks suspicious to me:


[cid:5ddecda2-d741-479e-a037-9bc70d4b6c2e]


No idea how your image can have this, as #loadOLPCOwnerKeys has no senders in Trunk, but maybe we should fix this defect via #copy and write an update script ...


Best,

Christoph

Hi Torge.

Thanks. I know how to workaround that debugger in my image. I was asking for a general fix for Trunk.

Best,
Marcel

Simple:
• create a weak reference to said bigInt
• remove last hard reference
• call gc
• verify that weak reference points to reclaimed object
;)
You will have to do that one step down the stack, though

Hi, there.

I just wanted to save a 32-bit image (Update 19541, VM 202003021730, Windows 10) under a new filename.

Boom! ModificationForbidden!

Here is the interesting stack:

Context>>modificationForbiddenFor:at:put:
LargePositiveInteger(Object)>>basicAt:put:
SecurityManager>>flushSecurityKey:
SecurityManager>>flushSecurityKeys
SecurityManager>>shutDown
SecurityManager class>>shutDown
SecurityManager class(Behavior)>>shutDown:
[] in SmalltalkImage>>send:toClassesNamedIn:with:
OrderedCollection>>do:
SmalltalkImage>>send:toClassesNamedIn:with:
SmalltalkImage>>processShutDownList:

Well, that code tries to change a LargePositiveInteger:

SecurityManager >> flushSecurityKey: aKey
"Flush a security key"
| n |
n := aKey first.
1 to: n basicSize do:[:i| n basicAt: i put: 0].
n := aKey second.
1 to: n basicSize do:[:i| n basicAt: i put: 0].

How to fix that without breaking security measures or the underlying concept?

Best,
Marcel
