Public bug reported: Steps to introduce: 1. Install Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. 2. Install Scilab 5.5.2 (http://www.scilab.org/, sudo apt-get install scilab). 3. Install all system upgrades (sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade) 4. Get kernel linux-image-4.4.0-81-generic with new updates. 5a. Try to start Scilab from GUI - it crashes. 5b. Try to start Scilab from terminal - it reports "Segmentation fault (core dumped)".
Expected results: * Scilab is working normally with new kernel. Actual results: * Scilab is crashing with new kernel (linux-image-4.4.0-81-generic), but works with previous one (linux-image-4.4.0-78-generic). Notes: * First discovered and documented by Philippe Roux on Scilab MailingLists (http://mailinglists.scilab.org/Scilab-users-scilab-gt-Segmentation-fault-td4036624.html). * The problem exists on both 32-bit and 64-bit architectures. * Temporary solution is to use previous kernel. * The problem may be related to these: new "linux-image-4.4.0-81-generic Regression: Oracle Java plugin crashes" (bug 1699772) or old "scilab libraries are heavily underlinked, causing segfaults on load" (bug 1299686). * SegvReason is "writing unknown VMA". * May be related to CVE-2017-1000364 .
