Hi,
I just came across an orca crash while using Firefox:
- Open https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/map.html
- Keep pressing down arrow / navigate down a few lines past the list of
countries
Orca stops running. If I run it from the terminal, I see that it crashed
with a stack overflow. The following is printed many times, for v3.36.1:
File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/orca/scripts/web/script_utilities.py", line 4624 in
findNextCaretInOrder
This bit of code recurses for every child of the parent:
if 0 < index < parentChildCount:
return self.findNextCaretInOrder(parent[index], -1)
And, somehow, at least on my system, it has come across an image
accessible with 2,771 children, all images. Orca dies after reaching 1000+
levels of recursion.
Thanks. Hope everyone is staying safe.
-Mike
