Bug #6168: Segfault in OpenSSL bindings
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6168

Hello,

A few days ago I updated my Arch Linux server to OpenSSL 1.0.1-1 and Ruby 1.9.3_p125-2. Since then I have been experiencing an odd service failure where a Ruby TLS service of mine would disconnect users with "invalid MAC" exceptions. Shortly after or even before that exception occurs, it segfaults in openssl/buffering.rb. I am not entirely sure whether this is a Ruby OpenSSL bindings bug or even an OpenSSL bug or simply a user error. This is what it prints:

/usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/openssl/buffering.rb:318: [BUG] Segmentation fault
ruby 1.9.3p125 (2012-02-16 revision 34643) [x86_64-linux]
