SIGABRT Vector Allocation Problem on C++ 11 - c++

I implemented a Priority Queue and its sorted himself with using vector
`
void sortQueue() {
std::vector<double> orders;
while (front != -1) {
orders.push_back(this->deQueue());
}
sort(orders.begin(), orders.end(), [](double o1, double o2) { return o1 < o2; });
for (int i = 0; i < orders.size(); ++i) {
this->Queue::enQueue(orders.back());
}
}
but after all lines of the function are executed gives that error
free(): invalid pointer Signal: SIGABRT (Aborted) on new_allocator.h
explanation on debugger is
Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted. 0x00007ffff788957c in ?? () from /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6
Program terminated with signal SIGABRT, Aborted. The program no longer exists.

why is following code giving Abort signal from abort(3) (SIGABRT)

I am trying to count the number of occurances of each letter in an string
why is Abort signal from abort(3) (SIGABRT) occurring in my code
following is my code implementation
void result()
{
string a,b,c;
cin>>a>>b>>c;
int x[26]={0},i,j;
for(i=0;i<a.size();i++)
{
j=a[i]-'a';
x[j]++;
}
cout<<"YES";
return;
}

This is the relevant part (I think) of my source code

this->coefficients = new double(1);
*(this->coefficients) = 1.;
}

{

register double *cfs = new double(n);

while (n--)

}

}
void Poly::Print() const
{
bool started = false;

std::cout << this->degree << '\n';
if (c != 0.)
{
std::cout << c;
started = true;
}
size_t N = this->degree;
for (size_t i = 1; i <= N; i++)
{
c = this->cf(i);
if (c != 0.)
{
if (!started)
started = true;
else
std::cout << ((c < 0.) ? " - " : " + ");
//printf(" + ");
std::cout << fabs(c) << " x^" << i;
//printf("%lf x^%lu", c, i);
}
}
printf("\n");
}
Poly::~Poly()
{
delete this->coefficients;
}
int main()
{
//printf("\n"); <- Uncommenting this line stops the error
Poly p1(7, 1., 3., -9., 2., 0., 8., -2., 6.);

}
Right now, Print method has many printfs and couts. But when I uncomment the line from main, malloc brings segmentation fault at the first print or cout or even putchar from the 'Print` method. I cannot find any memory leaks there. Why does it happen and how to prevent it?
I am using gcc (g++) 9.3.0 on WSL Ubuntu. The program is compiled with the flags -lc -g.

Looks like you corrupted your heap by writing past the end of your heap-allocation. I think your problem is here:
register double *cfs = new double(n);
Note that the above code allocates a single double set to value n, when I think what you wanted to do was allocate an array of n doubles. To do that you'd need to use brackets instead of parentheses:
register double *cfs = new double[n];

Why is the code giving Segmentaation fault?

I was solving the climbing leaderboard problem in hackerrank but my function gives segmentation fault.
vector<int> climbingLeaderboard(vector<int> scores, vector<int> alice) {
vector<int> res,i;
auto ip= unique(scores.begin(),scores.begin()+scores.size());
scores.resize(distance(scores.begin(),ip));
for(int i =0;i<alice.size();++i)
{
int curr =0;
while(alice[i]<=scores[curr]&&curr<scores.size())
++curr;
if(alice[i]==scores[curr-1])
res[i]=curr-1;
else if(alice[i]>scores[curr])
res[i]=curr;
else if(curr>scores.size()-1)
res[i]=curr;
}
return res;
}
It gives the following error:
> Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
> #0 0x0000000000402a01 in climbingLeaderboard (scores=..., alice=...)
> at /usr/local/include/c++/8.3.0/bits/stl_vector.h:930 930 operator[](size_type __n) _GLIBCXX_NOEXCEPT
Firstly, res[i] is accessed without allocating any elements in res.
vector<int> res should be vector<int> res(alice.size()).
Secondly, scores[curr] may be accessed before checking if curr<scores.size().
while(alice[i]<=scores[curr]&&curr<scores.size())
++curr;
should be
while(curr<scores.size()&&alice[i]<=scores[curr])
++curr;
and
else if(alice[i]>scores[curr])
res[i]=curr;
else if(curr>scores.size()-1)
res[i]=curr;
should be
else if(curr>scores.size()-1)
res[i]=curr;
else if(alice[i]>scores[curr])
res[i]=curr;

segmentation fault on joining pthread

UPDATE:
Using pthread_create(&id, NULL, function, NULL);, gives no seg fault and everything works flawlessly.
The code looks good correct.
However you should be using the compiler option -pthread but just linking to the PThread library with the linker option -lpthread. (https://stackoverflow.com/a/1665110/694576)

Segmentation fault with GMP

I have a program that reads a matrix from a file and stores it in the variable basis_MP, which is an instance variable. Since the values read from the files are very big (don't fit in native datatypes), I use GMP for a higher precision. I print the values of the matrix where the file is stored and they are correct.
After reading the file, I also initialize some other auxiliary variables that also use GMP. I declared them as instance variables, because I don't want to allocate and free them on each call to other methods. As soon as the line of code that initializes the first of them is executed, I get a segmentation fault.
basis.h:
#ifndef BASIS_H
#define BASIS_H
#include <math.h>
#include <gmp.h>
using namespace std;
class Basis {
private:
int rank; //No. vectors in the basis (also called n)
int dimension; //Dimension of each vector in the basis (also called m)
mpz_t **basis_MP; //Matrix containing all the vectors in the basis
mpf_t aux_MP_f0;
mpf_t aux_MP_f1;
mpf_t aux_MP_f2;
public:
Basis(); //Empty constructor
Basis(char *filename); //Constructor from file
}
basis_MP is the variable where the matrix is sotred, while aux_MP_f0, aux_MP_f1, aux_MP_f2 are the 3 auxiliary variables. All of them use GMP for a higher precision. In the constructor Basis(char *filename) all of these variables are initialized and the matrix is read.
basis.cpp:
#include "basis.h"
Basis::Basis() // Empty constructor
{
}
Basis::Basis(char* filename) // Constructor from file
{
char delim[] = " \n[]";
ifstream stream;
stream.open(filename);
if(!stream) cerr << "File was not read" << endl;
stream.seekg (0, stream.end);
int length = stream.tellg();
stream.seekg (0, stream.beg);
char * buffer = new char [length];
char * number = new char [length];
std::cout << "Reading " << length << " characters... " << endl;
stream.read (buffer,length);
int count = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < length; i++){
if (buffer[i] == '\n') {
count++;
break;
}
if (buffer[i] == ' ') {
count++;
}
}
dimension = count;
rank = count;
basis_MP = (mpz_t**)malloc(rank*sizeof(mpz_t*));
for (int i = 0; i < rank; i++)
basis_MP[i] = (mpz_t*)malloc(dimension*sizeof(mpz_t));
number = strtok(buffer, delim);
for (int i = 0; i < rank; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < dimension; j++) {
mpz_init_set_str(basis_MP[i][j], number, 10);
number = strtok(NULL, delim);
}
}
stream.close();
mpf_init2(aux_MP_f0, mpz_sizeinbase(basis_MP[0][0], 2));
mpf_init2(aux_MP_f1, mpz_sizeinbase(basis_MP[0][0], 2));
mpf_init2(aux_MP_f2, mpz_sizeinbase(basis_MP[0][0], 2));
delete buffer;
delete number;
}
The auxiliary variables are initialized with the precision of the first vector of the matrix. The segmentation fault occurs on this line: mpf_init2(aux_MP_f0, mpz_sizeinbase(basis_MP[0][0], 2));
main.cpp:
#include "basis.h"
int main (int argc, char **argv) {
Basis *b = new Basis(argv[1]);
}
The error I get is the following:

Somewhere the memory is being corrupted and I can't figure out where. Probably, I'm not using gmp correct. Does anyone have some hints?
Thanks
