Thanks for the report, but could you clarify?  Are the crashes with an 10.13.1 
host that has the Security Update applied?  Or an Updated 10.13.1 guest?  Are 
you saying that you were using dscl from the command line or that Parallels was 
calling it and crashing?

I presume this is under Parallels Desktop 13?  I have 13.2.0 (43213).
