Subject: [Rd] Null pointer dereference in Rf_isVector()
Message-ID: <2f843a96fa6fd0baf354ed406795053c@frankowicz.me>

Hello,

After some fuzz testing I found a problem with Rf_isVector() function in 
R 3.5.0.

Platform: Ubuntu 16.04
Compiler: Clang-4.0 (from Ubuntu's repository) + ASAN

Crashing R code:

structure(c(0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0),.Dim=c(53,4),.Dimnames=~((0)))

To reproduce:
1. Save crashing code to file.
2. Run it with command: Rscript --vanilla r_nullptr_Rf_isVector
