Hi there.
I have been having trouble creating a user in bugzilla and wanted to let you guys know about a bug I run into.
syslog-ng version: 3.4.3 built from sources syslog-ng -V: syslog-ng 3.4.3 Installer-Version: 3.4.3 Revision: ssh+git://algernon@git.balabit /var/scm/git/syslog-ng/syslog-ng-ose--mainline--3.4#no_branch#64d670f3cbfb90769f3c7f0fdd9c70bb9136ec5b Compile-Date: Sep 11 2013 05:33:29 Available-Modules: confgen,afsocket-tls,csvparser,affile,system-source,syslogformat,afuser,dbparser,afsocket-notls,basicfuncs,cryptofuncs,afsocket,afprog Enable-Debug: off Enable-GProf: off Enable-Memtrace: off Enable-IPv6: on Enable-Spoof-Source: off Enable-TCP-Wrapper: on Enable-Linux-Caps: off Enable-Pcre: on
On rare occasions (I can't reproduce it reliably) syslog-ng segfaults when reloading (syslog-ng-ctl reload). I have a core dump file that gave me this stack trace: #0 0x00007fbd30102131 in ??

When at frame #5, I got this: (gdb) print *self->proto->options $19 = {destroy = 0, initialized = -1, encoding = 0xffffffffffffffff <Address 0xffffffffffffffff out of bounds>, convert = 0xffffffffffffffff, max_msg_size = -1, max_buffer_size = 0, init_buffer_size = 0}
I could not find anywhere in the code where initialized is set to -1, so I assume this is some kind of memory corruption.
Let me know if you need anything else from me.
Cheers.
