PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Sat, 13 Dec 2025 18:23:21 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Machine Type: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
Bash Version: 5.3
Patch Level: 9
Release Status: release
Description:
If you have a script, lets say it's called loop.sh, and it contains the
following line:
source loop.sh
When you run this script bash will segmentation fault. I'd imagine this
is caused by a stack overflow, because when debugging bash there are 35604
stack frames once it crashes.
