I am also experiencing this bug; specifically, this is a regression from `iputils-0:20240905-4.fc42.x86_64` to `iputils-0:20250602-3.fc42.x86_64`.
Shell transcript from before the update:
$ ping -V
ping from iputils 20240905
libcap: yes, IDN: yes, NLS: yes, error.h: yes, getrandom(): yes, __fpending(): yes
$ rpm --query --queryformat='%{NAME}\t%{VERSION}\n' iputils
iputils 20240905
$ ping -c 1 fedoraproject.org

I spent a few days trying to troubleshoot a supplier script which was using `ping -c1` to check if a server was up; and finally found the update that broke it. Upstream promptly fixed it and released https://github.com/iputils/iputils/releases/tag/20250605, please update Fedora package as early as possible. *** Bug 2386883 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Sorry for the delay here.
