Hi,

We are using the libcurl version as below,

---------------------- libcurl version ----------------------------

curl 7.18.1 (sparc-sun-solaris2.10) libcurl/7.18.2 OpenSSL/0.9.8g zlib/1.1.3

Protocols: tftp ftp telnet dict ldap http file https ftps

Features: IPv6 Largefile NTLM SSL libz

------------------------------------------------------------------------

We have developed a server which has libcurl at its heart. It processes all
kind of http / soap requests. This server goes into a hang state once it
receives a curl return code as "CURLE_COULDNT_CONNECT", the server process
doesn't crash neither it generates any core file.

However the curl return code "CURLE_COULDNT_CONNECT" is not frequent enough
to replicate the issue. So we tried to simulate the situation by
intentionally setting the return code variable to "CURLE_COULDNT_CONNECT"
and observed the behavior. This time the process crashed and generated a
core showing the below stack,

(dbx) lwp l_at_5

Current function is Curl_ossl_session_free

  850 SSL_SESSION_free(ptr);

t_at_5 (l_at_5) stopped in realfree at 0xfe9d4a4c

0xfe9d4a4c: realfree+0x003c: st %o1, [%i0 - 8]

(dbx) where

As per the core, the server fails during curl_easy_cleanup ( not sure what
would be a logical reason).

Any help for this regard would be great.

Thanks,

San.
