openby jepleropened 2025-08-02updated 2025-08-02
bug

Port, board and/or hardware

unix port, coverage variant, x86_64 linux

MicroPython version

MicroPython v1.26.0-preview.521.g658a2e3dbd on 2025-08-02; linux [GCC 12.2.0] version

Reproduction

Run in the repl:

>>> import socket
>>> socket.socket(True)
micropython: modsocket.c:481: socket_make_new: Assertion `mp_obj_is_small_int(args[0])' failed.

Expected behaviour

An assertion error occurs

Observed behaviour

A Python exception should have occurred

Additional Information

Manually minimized crash from fuzzer

Code of Conduct

Yes, I agree

core: assertion error on syntactically invalid Python code

openby jepleropened 2025-07-20updated 2025-07-20
bug

Port, board and/or hardware

unix VARIANT=coverage

MicroPython version

MicroPython v1.26.0-preview.387.g67acac257f.dirty on 2025-07-19; linux [GCC 12.2.0] version

Reproduction

Run the following code:

def f(a, b): pass          
f(None, x=b"", y:=True)                                                 

Expected behaviour

Code is rejected at byte-compile time similar to Python:

  File "/tmp/qstrcrash.py", line 2
    f(None, x=b"", y:=True)
                          ^
SyntaxError: positional argument follows keyword argument

Observed behaviour

The file byte-compiles but an assertion error occurs when executing the call to f:

micropython: ../../py/qstr.c:198: find_qstr: Assertion `*q < pool->len' failed.

Additional Information

This is a minimized test case based on a crash found by fuzzing micropython
