Vyper: Call stack corruption when passing complex type containing non-base type members as argument
0.1.0b1 - 0.2.5

Summary

Vyper: Call stack corruption when passing complex type containing non-base type members as argument

Details

Impact

When we pass a multi-dimensional array (like [[1, 2], [3, 4]]) as an argument to internal/external functions we get incorrect output. This is due to a stack management issue, because it was assumed that the size of each subtype of an array/struct is 32, which is not always correct.

Example code:

@internal
def test_input(arr: int128[2][1], i: int128) -> (int128[2][1], int128):
    return arr, i

@external
def test_values(arr: int128[2][1], i: int128) -> (int128[2][1], int128):
    return self.test_input(arr, i)

Please see #2183 for further information
