Bug #125433 for Net-SFTP-SftpServer: getFullFilenameBREAKCHROOT does not return filename

Hello, I've found that the function Net::SFTP::SftpServer::File::getFullFilenameBREAKCHROOT does not return the filename portion, only the chroot dir. I get this warning as well: Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at /home/itk/perl5/lib/perl5//Net/SFTP/SftpServer.pm line 2238. Looking into it further, I can see the problem: my $ident = scalar $self; 'scalar' only asks perl to treat the expression as a scalar rather than a list, so $ident ends up holding another reference to the same object. bless $self, 'Net::SFTP::SftpServer::FileChrootBroken'; return $chroot_dir . $filename_of{$ident} Re-blessing $self also reblesses $ident, since they point to the same object. Therefore, $filename_of{$ident} no longer refers to the same entry in %filename_of. I suspect you intended $ident to contain a stringified version of $self, so you could use it as a hash key. This would work better: my $ident = "$self"; There is another problem with the re-blessing - it means that DESTROY is never run for the objects. The various hashes you have there will have entries left over from every file. It's even possible that a subsequent file object will be created with the same heap address, and therefore end up with the same "ident" as a previous instance, and maybe have various left over bits of state associated with them.
