please take a look at the following patch by Andreas Jaggi:
https://lists.quagga.net/pipermail/quagga-dev/2017-September/033284.html
Since applying it, our routers have not been hit with this problem
again. If you must rely on distro packages, you may want to draw the
distro package maintainer's attention to this patch.
The workaround with as-path access-list restricting the number of as path
components as noted in
https://lists.quagga.net/pipermail/quagga-users/2017-September/014839.html
will only help the routers _behind_ the one applying this access-list.
A router receiving such a malformed AS path from outside will still show
this problem.
Regards
Matthias Ferdinand
