Hello!

Since the last macOS Update (10.13) and its new pre-installed curl library 
(7.54) we often see the following crash:

Exception Type:        EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT)
Exception Codes:       0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000
Exception Note:        EXC_CORPSE_NOTIFY

Application Specific Information:
abort() called
*** error for object 0x7fffafd23058: pointer being freed was not allocated

The call to curl_share_cleanup ist the first one in the crashing process (so a 
multi-free from our source is excluded).
The process heavily uses the share handle before without crashing.
The crash usually happens when the network goes away and cURL starts to fail 
with SSL_CONNECT_ERROR.
Calling curl_share_cleanup after this leads to the crash above.
The share handle is created with CURLSHOPT_SHARE/CURL_LOCK_DATA_SSL_SESSION 
(maybe on a different thread than curl_share_cleanup is called).
In logs I can see that the ssl session locking functions are correctly called 
when performing a request.
Our process uses cURL multi-threaded, but only one handle on one thread.
While the crash no request is executed.

Before the macOS-Update I could never see such crashes.


Has anybody an idea what the cause could be?

Dominik
