Document producing the crash

Description of problem:
When viewing some documents, mupdf crashes with the following message:

$ mupdf-x11 catalog_es.pdf 
mupdf-x11: source/fitz/colorspace.c:1399: fast_rgb_to_cmyk: Assertion `"This should never happen" == NULL' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mupdf-1.12.0-5.fc27

How reproducible:
I've attached a document that reliably reproduces the crash in my system when attempting to view page 3.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the attached document.
2. Forward page until page 3.

Actual results:
Crash.

Expected results:
Displaying the document without crashes. :-)

Comment 1 Michael J Gruber 2018-03-11 14:22:56 UTC
Thanks for the report.

Interestingly, this PDF works with zathura, even using its mupdf backend. I've pointed upstream to this report.

Comment 2 Ricardo Garcia 2018-03-12 22:45:33 UTC
I've built mupdf 1.12.0 from the official source tarball without any patches and it doesn't seem to crash. Color rendering is also fine.

By following the procedure in the spec file (removing thirdparty/ and applying the same compilation flags), I get the crash.

If I apply the patch mentioned here it doesn't crash but color rendering is borked.

Comment 3 Michal Jaegermann 2018-04-29 22:54:26 UTC
I bumped into another document which reliably crashes mupdf-1.12.0-5.fc27.x86_64 in exactly the same way as in the original report.  As a reproducer is already present I would rather avoid uploading this document as it is not exactly mine.  As this is a one-page file mupdf bombs out immediately on an attempt to open it.  Anyway - pdfinfo reports the following;

Comment 5 Michael J Gruber 2018-04-30 10:20:37 UTC
Could you try with a build from https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/mjg/mupdf/ please?

These are test builds for the upcoming fedora mupdf update. I will have to bundle lcms2 to fix these issues, the copr build has that. I still have to decide whether the mupdf UI issues (unicode, copy+paste) justify bundling the patched freeglut.

Since bundling patched libs should not be done lightly I've allowed extra time before I apply these changes, and additional input would be very helful.

My "crasher" file is rendered by this build of mupdf without any complaints or other issues.

If this is really an lcms2 fault then maybe this report should be reassigned there?

Perfect, thanks!

mupdf uses lcms2 in a special way (multithreaded), and Artifex (the makers of mupdf) patch lcms2 to support this mode. Artifex do not support the use of an unpatched lcms2; lcms2 does not accept the Artifex patches; Fedora does not support bundled versions of system libraries, unless necessary for special reasons, and unless the patcher (in this case: Artifex) makes sure to apply security fixes.

In any case, this warrants bundling lcms2. Updates upcoming.

Comment 8 Ricardo Garcia 2018-04-30 20:40:22 UTC
Thanks. The COPR build fixes the crash and the weird colors in my system too. Looking forward to those updates.
