  Each time cron tries to execute a job from /etc/cron.d (or any other

 I see syslog entries like these:
 
 some-machine:~# grep 'segfault at 0 ip 0 sp' /var/log/syslog
 Sep 22 07:17:01 some-machine kernel: [404176.341433] cron[18161]: segfault at 
 0 ip 0 sp 7fffcfae1148 error 14 in cron[40+9000]

In the past, these repeated segfaults have almost always been traced
back to a buggy PAM module.

Are you by chance using libpam-mount? It was the cause for #401761 and
#484122, for example, which exhibited the same symptoms.

If not, please post the output of `dpkg -l | grep pam`.


Thanks,
Christian

Yeah, it was a libpam-mount, sorry for the noise :(
I realized it a couple of minutes after I sent the bug report.

Greetings,
