Five bugs identified and patched in retail Asheron's Call client: - v3b: palette refcount over-increment (3-byte NOP at two sites) - v5: RenderSurface PurgeResource no-op stub (vtable slot 2 thunk) - v11: two dangling-pointer crash guards (NULL-check + reorder) - v14: CEnvCell::Destroy ClipPlaneList leak (18-byte JMP to cleanup thunk) - v22: unpacker stale-pointer SEH guard (whole-function __try/__except) All five ship in leakfix.dll (117 KB, SHA d282f23c…) which is loaded by acclient.exe at process start via PE import table patching by tools/install_leakfix.py. Controlled 15-client fleet soak: unpatched control died at 26h with palette exhaustion; all 14 patched clients survived past that point and reached ≥5-day uptime. Residual ~15 MB/h growth traced to d3d9.dll's internal slab allocator (260KB surface backing buffers retained after Release). See REPORT.md §10 for the full investigation; conclusion is that it's unfixable from outside d3d9. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

|
|
v9: hook CPhysicsObj::Destroy to call unparent_children(this) first.
|
|
|
|
Mechanism:
|
|
Insert a 5-byte JMP at CPhysicsObj::Destroy entry (0x005145D0) that
|
|
redirects to a 17-byte thunk in the .text cave at 0x00792CE0.
|
|
The thunk:
|
|
1. Saves this (ecx)
|
|
2. Calls CPhysicsObj::unparent_children(this) at 0x00513FE0
|
|
3. Restores this
|
|
4. Re-executes the 5 displaced bytes (push ebx; push esi; mov esi,ecx; push edi)
|
|
5. JMPs back to 0x005145D5 (continuation of Destroy)
|
|
|
|
This fixes the orphan-children leak: parents being destroyed without
|
|
calling unparent_children leave children with parent pointers to freed
|
|
memory, which causes UAF crashes in CObjectMaint cleanup chains.
|
|
|
|
Risk:
|
|
- unparent_children is idempotent (safe to call multiple times)
|
|
- Both patch site and thunk are in .text
|
|
- Single chokepoint: only ~CPhysicsObj reaches Destroy
|
|
- Stack alignment preserved (push ecx + pop ecx)
