Great, thanks for the info. Yes, I did see the stack smashing detected in my stdout. Unfortunately, I didn't realize it was related to my issue. I should have read it more carefully.

(I captured agent stderr/stdout by restarting fossology service from shell command line.) The last message in the thread contains my diagnosis of the likely cause. What I did NOT report to the list was my workaround: I recompiled Filter_License agent with stack smashing protection disabled, by adding "-fno-stack-protector" into CFLAGS_LOCAL in agents/foss_license_agent/Filter_License/Makefile, and Filter_License has been running fine ever since. Of course, your issue may be something totally different, in which case someone more qualified than myself will have to help.
