            Bug ID: 114805
           Summary: placement new doesn't check array length
           Product: gcc
           Version: unknown
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c++
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org

Created attachment 58007
  --> https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D58007&action=3Dedit
Example code but as attachment

#include <new>
#include <cstdio>

int main()
{
    int sz =3D -1;
    char buf[9];
    char* res =3D new (buf) char[sz];
    std::puts(res =3D=3D (char*) nullptr? "correct" : "wrong");
}

This program should output "correct", since:

expr.new.9: array bound is erroneous since it's less than zero before
conversion to std::size_t (9.1)

expr.new.9.5.1: the placement new is nothrow, so the result of this operati=
on
must be nullptr. It isn't

Curiously, if you replace the allocated type with an array of ints, it will
incorrectly throw the std::bad_array_new_length exception instead of return=
ing
nullptr=
