Public bug reported: [Impact]
apt-transport-https crashes whenever any repository's Owner is NULL. This leaves the user unable to get any upgrades as long as the problematic repository is present in sources.list or sources.list.d directory. [Test Case] 1. echo "deb https://dl.bintray.com/sbt/debian /" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sbt.list 2. sudo apt-get update 3. sudo apt-get install sbt Expected result: The package gets installed/updated. Actual result: E: Method https has died unexpectedly! E: Sub-process https received a segmentation fault. [Regression Potential] The patch that was uploaded to both Debian and Ubuntu Vivid is rather simple, therefore the regression potential is really low.
