Crash report
What happened?
The following code causes a crash in cpython:
class Generic: def __call__(*a): print(a) def __getattr__(self, name): return Generic() name_5 = Generic() type name_3[*name_2] = 0 name_3[name_5][0]
output:
(<__main__.Generic object at 0x7fb99dc5a280>, name_3[<__main__.Generic object at 0x7fb99d792420>], (0,)) (<__main__.Generic object at 0x7fb99dbd7960>, None) python3: ./Include/cpython/tupleobject.h:24: PyTuple_GET_SIZE: Assertion `PyTuple_Check(op)' failed. fish: Job 1, '../cpython/install/bin/python3 …' terminated by signal SIGABRT (Abbruch)
I found this example while fuzzing with pysource-codegen.
