That's pretty severe. Thanks for reporting, I'll look at it soon. I have a good idea where it's coming from.
Upstream issue: https://github.com/danfruehauf/NetworkManager-ssh/issues/25 Regardless of whether I can reproduce this or not, I'm just going to replace all strcmp with strncmp.
Hi Justin, I'm interested in the NM configuration you've been using, you should be able to find it at: /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ Please conceal any passwords in it if you have any. I was not able to reproduce the problem just yet...
Configuration is as follows: ========================================= [connection] id=ArcAngel SSH uuid=61fa52da-a2b9-4b3e-bf9f-eb4092a4ad79 type=vpn autoconnect=false [vpn] service-type=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.ssh local-ip=10.11.12.1 extra-opts=-o ServerAliveInterval=10 -o TCPKeepAlive=yes remote=arcangel.example.tld #Masked netmask=255.255.255.252 auth-type=ssh-agent remote-ip=192.168.1.102 [vpn-secrets] ssh-auth-sock=/run/user/1000/keyring-kjBb04/ssh [ipv6] method=auto [ipv4] method=auto ========================================= Hope this helps.
Unfortunately I couldn't reproduce the problem, however I understood why the crash could happen. Either way, when choosing remote and local IPs, you must make sure they are in the same network, such that 10.11.12.1/255.255.255.252 and 192.168.1.102/255.255.255.252 are on the same network. Otherwise things wouldn't work. Is it still BTW constantly crashing for you?
I am not seeing the catastrophic crash I experienced earlier.
