Category: Web/CGI Group: 2.1 (stable) Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: David Shaw (dmshaw) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Race condition with summary modification screen
Initial Comment: I just upgraded to 2.1 and noticed an interesting race condition with the summary version of the moderation page.
Take this timeline:
- user@example.com sends 3 messages to the list
- moderator visits summary moderation page and sees the 3 messages
- user@example.com sends another message to the list
- moderator clicks "discard" and submits
The end result is that Mailman discards 4 messages, including the latest one that the moderator did not get to see.
This does not happen with the old-style "details" version of the moderation page.
