Hello, I've not seen ssh.exe abort in this fashion before.
I have a product which uses ssh without any problems (on about 2,500 servers), but one troublesome server throws this exception. ** The command line is: ssh -vvv -o 'stricthostkeychecking=no' -i authorized_keys2 -l myuser AServer .. ** The debug output, up to the crash-point is: debug1: identity file authorized_keys2 type 2 debug1: Remote protocol version 2.0, remote software version OpenSSH_3.7.1p1 debug1: match: OpenSSH_3.7.1p1 pat OpenSSH* debug1: Enabling compatibility mode for protocol 2.0 16 [main] ssh 685 handle_exceptions: Exception: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION ** ssh.exe.stackdump contains: exception: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION at eip=016E65A8 eax=00000000 ebx=0022F904 ecx=0022F904 edx=00000000 esi=00EF66F0 edi=00000001 ebp=00000144 esp=0022F84C program=C:\ProductName\ssh.exe cs=001B ds=0023 es=0023 fs=0038 gs=0000 ss=0023 Stack trace: Frame Function Args  26681 [main] ssh 1020 handle_exceptions: Exception: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION  28947 [main] ssh 1020 handle_exceptions: Error while dumping state probably corrupted stack ** Running the same with strace, the output just up to the crash-point ... 506 4789118 [main] ssh 537 writev: writev (3, 0x22FA00, 1) 511 4789629 [main] ssh 537 wsock_event::prepare: 2291972 = wsock_event::prepare () 943 4790572 [main] ssh 537 handle_exceptions: In cygwin_except_handler exc 0xC0000005 at 0x16E65A8 sp 0x22F84C 481 4791053 [main] ssh 537 handle_exceptions: In cygwin_except_handler sig = 11 at 0x16E65A8 497 4791550 [main] ssh 537 handle_exceptions: In cygwin_except_handler calling 0x0 646 4792196 [main] ssh 537 handle_exceptions: Exception: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION 2743 4794939 [main] ssh 537 try_to_debug: debugger_command '' 28673 4823612 [main] ssh 537 open_stackdumpfile: Dumping stack trace to ssh.exe.stackdump If anyone can shed any light on this, I'd be chuffed.
