            <title>[CXX-906] Null dereference in DBClientWithCommands methods: getCollectionNames(), getCollectionInfos(), exists()</title>
                <link>https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/CXX-906</link>
                <project id="11980" key="CXX">C++ Driver</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;This behaviour repeated when connection breaks (as example server was stopped) and then running has finished with segmentation fault.&lt;br/&gt;
Crutch-solution for client-code as I see, is check before by method isStillConnected(), but this method too is not absolutely good &lt;a href=&quot;https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/CXX-905&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;other bug&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

                            <comment id="1260496" author="acm" created="Tue, 10 May 2016 12:36:03 +0000"  >&lt;p&gt;Ah, thanks for that. I see what is happening now.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The issue is that the getCollectionNames and getCollectionInfos methods fail to check whether the returned auto_ptr&amp;lt;cursor&amp;gt; from enumerateCollections, in terms of which both of those functions are implemented, is actually valid before dereferencing it. So, definitely a bug, and thanks for reporting it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I think as a workaround you could just call enumerateCollections yourself and interpret the results. If you read the implementation of getCollectionNames in the driver, it should be very clear how to do that.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We will add some logic so that if enumerateCollections returns a null auto_ptr&amp;lt;cursor&amp;gt; to getCollectionNames or getCollectionInfos then an exception is thrown.&lt;/p&gt;

If the former, I can&apos;t recommend strongly enough that you use the C&amp;#43;&amp;#43;11 driver instead of the legacy driver, if C&amp;#43;&amp;#43;11 is available in your environment. The new driver is a dramatic improvement over the legacy driver, both for interface, and implementation. If, for some reason, you cannot use C&amp;#43;&amp;#43;11, at this point I would even recommend the straight C driver over the legacy driver. The legacy C&amp;#43;&amp;#43; driver is just that - legacy. We are planning to begin the process to EOL the legacy C&amp;#43;&amp;#43; driver sometime later this year.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
