Hello Everybody,

I can be wrong but for me it looks like a possible problem in
bvsnprintf() function.

In this output:

#4  0x00007ff005024d59 in fmtstr (buffer=buffer@entry=0x7fefcc00f890
"Disconnection from 226.144.140:9101", currlen=currlen@entry=19,
maxlen=maxlen@entry=512, value=0xaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa <error: Cannot
access memory at address 0xaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa>, flags=0, min=0, max=512)
at /usr/src/debug/bacula-15.0.3-3.el9.x86_64/src/lib/bsnprintf.c:462
#5  0x00007ff005025995 in bvsnprintf
(buffer=buffer@entry=0x7fefcc00f890 "Disconnection from
226.144.140:9101", maxlen=512, format=<optimized out>,
format@entry=0x55b590a39128 "Disconnection from %s:%d",
args=args@entry=0x7fefe9ffab10) at
/usr/src/debug/bacula-15.0.3-3.el9.x86_64/src/lib/bsnprintf.c:362


the IP address looks to be incomplete (3 octets): "Disconnection from
226.144.140:9101".

The currlen=currlen@entry=19 indicates to position 19 which is the
start position of the IP address: "Disconnection from "

Maybe something happened here...

I am curious what is the problem :-) and if this is the right path (I
am not a C programmer).

Best regards,
Marcin Haba (gani)
