Created attachment 1718160 [details] journal excerpt Description of problem: /usr/bin/libexec/gensnippet_f segfaults, I'm not sure why however. Encountered on a machine that is offline, and consequently starts the cockpit/ws container (with podman). However it seems to happen when starting any container, even with network access.

Pull a container, say fedora 2. Run it, podman will add an interface 3. gensnippet_if crashes
Since it's not a lot of data I'm just going to copy the error message here: ``` kernel: gensnippet_if[1019]: segfault at 7ffc52d82bd0 ip 00005591c33f4531 sp 00007ffc52d82b90 error 6 in bash[5591c33e7000+b6000] kernel: audit: type=1701 audit(1601553177.676:303): auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 ses=4294967295 subj=system_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0 pid=1019 comm="gensnippet_if" exe="/usr/bin/bash" sig=11 res=1 audit[1019]: ANOM_ABEND auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 ses=4294967295 subj=system_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0 pid=1019 comm="gensnippet_if" exe="/usr/bin/bash" sig=11 res=1 systemd-coredump[4789]: Resource limits disable core dumping for process 1019 (gensnippet_if). systemd-coredump[4789]: Process 1019 (gensnippet_if) of user 0 dumped core. nm-dispatcher[1018]: /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/90-console-login-helper-messages-gensnippet_if: line 13: 1019 Segmentation fault (core dumped) /usr/libexec/console-login-helper-messages/gensnippet_if "${interface}" "${action}" ```
Hmm, this looks like bash itself is getting a SIGSEGV? Or I guess it's possible that something is explictly sending a `SIGSEGV` to us. A coredump would help differentiate I think. @Sanne, could you try to get a coredump from bash? From the logs it looks like it might be limited (what does `ulimit -c` say?).
Sorry, I didn't mean to change component on this just yet. We can keep this under c-l-h-m until we have more info.

Created attachment 1718205 [details] coredump
I added the full journal and ran it again without coredump limits. It does seem that bash itself crashes?
I think it is indeed a problem with console-login-helper-messages. gensnippet_if contains a recursive call that is probably overflowing the stack. In bash, infinite recursion in a function call does cause a segmentation fault.
