Bug 107904 – Keep a RefPtr<SerializedScriptValue*> when we call serialize()/deserialize() in PopStateEvent

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: WebCore JavaScript

[Kentaro Hara]

If you use a raw SerializedScriptValue* for serialize()/deserialize(), it can potentially cause a use-after-free. This is because serialize()/deserialize() can destruct a RefPtr of the SerializedScriptValue*, depending on data that is serialized/deserialized. So we should keep a RefPtr<SerializedScriptValue*> when we call serialize()/deserialize(). (See https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=107792 for more details.)

This change makes no sense and does no good. The other half of the change would have been sufficient, although you’d have to add a get() at some call sites. There is no reason for this function to take a PassRefPtr, which implies that it takes ownership of its argument. Please roll this part of the change out.
