Asterisk Crash coredump report json_mem_free

Asterisk Asterisk APIs

Hi,
I have on a server with a script written in python 3.6, it monitors some channels via ARI connected by websocket, the asterisk is crashing randomly.
Coredump shows the following message

the debug log shows no errors.

I have other servers with the same script running but they do not hang, the difference is that the simultaneous calls are on average 20 per minute on the servers that are dropping.

obs:
The python script is connected via proxy by apache, not directly connected to the ARI websocket.

The python script does not report any programming errors.

My doubts are:

  • Can the Asterisk websocket break for some overhead?

  • Has anyone ever had a similar problem?

2

This is from the jansson library itself. What version of Asterisk is in use? What version of libjansson?

3

Asterisk version is 13.25.0
libjansson.so.4 -> libjansson.so.4.10.0

4

Did you just edit that comment? Didn’t it say jansson-2.7 a moment ago?

5

Yes a say but i have check in my /usr/src, they have a folder named jansson-2.7, but when i run: ldconfig -v | grep libjansson, the return is: libjansson.so.4 -> libjansson.so.4.10.0
