Crash on Mesh::RecalculateNormals when calling Mesh.RecalculateNormals on a malformed mesh

--

-

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the “user’s attached project”
2. Select the “TerrainGenerator” GameObject through the Hierarchy
3. Press the “Generate” button under the “Terrain Generator 3” component through the Inspector
4. Observe the crash

Reproducible with versions: 2022.3.43f1, 6000.0.16f1
Couldn’t test with versions: 2021.3.43f1 (due to compiler errors)

Reproducible on: macOS 14.5 (Intel), Windows 11 (by the reporter)
Not reproducible on: no other environment tested

Notes:
- Crash does not occur after commenting out line 119 in {{Generation3.cs}}

  1. Resolution Note:

    Validation is explicitly turned off in the code. MeshUpdateFlags.DontValidateIndices is provided to Mesh.SetSubMesh & Mesh.ApplyAndDisposeWritableMeshData. This will skip validation and can result in a crash when invalid data is provided. An ArgumentException is thrown when validation is enabled. More importantly, the project does not crash.
