Hello,
I’m currently using Asterisk 19.1.0.
I encountered this issue with Asterisk 17.x as well.
My Logs show there is a JSON Parse exception. This crash occurs when entering and leaving ConfBridge Application and when inviting a participant to a ConfBridge. I have been trying to trace this down. I believe that it might be something with the Channel Application and Channel Data becoming empty, and perhaps the ‘\0’ character is not interpreted correctly thus causing Segmentation Faults.
I can also see this on a one-to-one call. However, the one-to-one call does not cause Segmentation Faults. This occurs when I use the b() option within Dial Command. The outbound channel does not properly set the Channel Application and Channel Data.
An example is this:
Dev1Asterisk1*CLI> core show channels
Channel Location State Application(Data)
PJSIP/opensips_noweb 11e6f5a0-4ccd-424a-a Ring Dial(PJSIP/11e6f5a0-4ccd-424a-
PJSIP/11e6f5a0-4ccd- 11e6f5a0-4ccd-424a-a Ringing ▒+=▒(▒+=▒)
I used Asterisk 15.5 for a few years and never saw the ▒ character in one-to-one calls. It started occuring when I upgraded to 17.x then to 19.1.0. I have reason to believe this might be related to the Conference Segmentation Fault.
Has anyone encountered this before?
