Description of problem: nwipe logs in memory as well as printing the result. In 0.26, there is a possible case where a log line "slot" that was already allocated for a short log line could be re-used for a longer log line, causing a buffer overflow. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): nwipe-0.26-1.el7.x86_64 How reproducible: Reliably, but not 100% of the time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Using nwipe 0.26 wipe multiple disks with the GUI enabled. Actual results: Segfault or glibc abort if MALLOC_CHECK_ is in use. It can also be seen using valgrind as an illegal write. Expected results: None of that. Additional info: This is a known bug, and fixed upstream (see https://github.com/martijnvanbrummelen/nwipe/commit/8bb3f9ff148466d2d93379a3772be66220e7ca01#diff-0377db1f497fac68751312e158d8d4b5 ) so updating to nwipe 0.28 should resolve the problem.
Confirmed. I've submitted a pull request to update nwipe to 0.30
