[New-bugs-announce] [issue46672] NameError in asyncio.gather when passing a invalid type as an arg with multiple awaitables

[arl]

New submission from arl <genericusername414 at gmail.com>:

It is possible to cause a NameError in asyncio.gather if the second presumed coroutine fails the internal type check.


Sample code:

import asyncio
async def main():
    coros = (asyncio.sleep(1), {1: 1})
    await asyncio.gather(*coros)
asyncio.run(main())



Exception in callback gather.<locals>._done_callback(<Task cancell...tasks.py:593>>) at /usr/local/lib/python3.10/asyncio/tasks.py:714
handle: <Handle gather.<locals>._done_callback(<Task cancell...tasks.py:593>>) at /usr/local/lib/python3.10/asyncio/tasks.py:714>
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.10/asyncio/runners.py", line 44, in run
    return loop.run_until_complete(main)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.10/asyncio/base_events.py", line 641, in run_until_complete
    return future.result()
  File "<string>", line 4, in main
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.10/asyncio/tasks.py", line 775, in gather
    if arg not in arg_to_fut:
TypeError: unhashable type: 'dict'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

    self._context.run(self._callback, *self._args)
