Public bug reported:
I have Ubuntu 26.04 installed (Description: Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, Release:
26.04) with pcsc-lite 2.4.1-1 and openconnect 9.12-3.3
I'm trying to connect to a corporate Cisco VPN GW uwing openconnect and Gemalto
token. First I extract a webvpn cookie and I'd use that cookie to actually
establish the VPN connection.
I run openvpn like this:
openconnect -vvvv --servercert <vpn server cert> -p <token pin> -c <token URL>
<vpn gw/group> --cookieonly --useragent=AnyConnect
The authentication process completes, openconnect outputs:
...

and then
[1] 1596404 segmentation fault openconnect -vvvv --servercert -p <token
pin> -c <vpn gw/group>
kern.log shows:

Unfortunatelly, there is no core dump file (or not that I can see).
Since this openconnect call is part of a VPN connection script, I cannot
use the output.
