Package: libc6
Version: 2.38-7+gl0
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: jingyuanli...@google.com
Dear Maintainer,
The issue happened in a containerized context - the system information
extracted below doesn't apply.
If you speak Docker, the build below is a reproduction of the issue; otherwise,
just skip this.
```
FROM debian:bookworm-slim AS bash
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends
--no-install-suggests bash-static
FROM
gcr.io/distroless/base-debian12@sha256:6ae5fe659f28c6afe9cc2903aebc78a5c6ad3aaa3d9d0369760ac6aaea2529c8
COPY --from=bash /bin/bash-static /bin/bash
ENTRYPOINT ["/bin/bash"]
```
We're building containers by pulling certain packages / binaries from Debian
without the full package manager. For this particular container, we've taken
libc6 and bash-static plus a few more, but not all (and far from all) packages
that would be seen on a regular system, and we execute bash-static inside the
container. Recently, we found bash-static fails execution in recently built
containers immediately at startup, on ARM (aarch64) only (works on amd64,
didn't test other architectures), with SIGSEGV at startup. The ARM chip is an
Ampere Altra. Upon investigation, we found it started failing since libc6 was
bumped from 2.36-9+deb12u7 to 2.36-9+deb12u8, with bash-static not changed at
5.2.15-2+b7. Tracing the crash, it shows:

I'm not familiar with glibc code so I don't know how to interpret this, but I
noticed that 2.36-9+deb12u8 introduced several ARM changes. I wonder if they
could be related?
Thanks.
