Hello,
I do have a freshly installed system Rocky Linux 9.6 (Blue Onyx) with a
wget 1.21.1 and rkhunter 1.4.6 installed from repositories, glibc is
version 2.34.
Sometimes wget throws an error when called by rkhunter. (Unfortunately I
do have a German system so I just have the German messages)
It does not throw the error when used in other instances, at least I had
not seen it.
/bin/rkhunter: Zeile 7550: 397708 Speicherzugriffsfehler (Speicherabzug
geschrieben) /bin/wget -q -O "/var/lib/rkhunter/rkhunter.upd.Sec52siO9R"
http://rkhunter.sourceforge.net/1.4/programs_bad.dat 2> /dev/null
Translation by ChatGPT:
/bin/rkhunter: line 7550: 397708 Segmentation fault (core dumped)
/bin/wget -q -O "/var/lib/rkhunter/rkhunter.upd.Sec52siO9R"
http://rkhunter.sourceforge.net/1.4/programs_bad.dat 2> /dev/null
So I have figured that the problem lies with wget.
Checking dmesg

I tried to reinstall wget and glibc without success, the error still is
thrown.
I tried to debug the error, though I am not an expert and also it took a
while as the error is not thrown on a regular basis, I had to repeat it
several times, at least this is the backtrace:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Is this a wget or a glibc error?
With regards,
