RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

This bug has been created based on an anonymous crash report requested by the package maintainer.

Report URL: https://faf.lab.eng.brq.redhat.com/faf/reports/bthash/3793271e5386234cfc7f2dcbc43435a00bca2bd3/

should be fixed upstream:

master:  https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/commit/44fed3c3404efcb2a9db9e4a2ad6b87c3b9a44d8
nm-1-22: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/commit/cdfb762880ff18c4581269bfaee7d4aa56a7ac50
nm-1-20: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/commit/56c653eca53a8ece8d52c1b90a1cf15352a74b81
nm-1-18: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/commit/e905eb870ffed78040c804c80bb84be5f2d128fc

(thus, affecting all RHEL 8 and recent RHEL-7).

It is relatively severe, as it can lead to a crash, because we afterwards try to log a warning about the assertion failure (which leads to a NULL pointer dereference). On the other hand, it seems not not happen that easily, since it wasn't reported before.

FAF system has not seen it since     2020-03-22
