Hi Lukas,

I've retested on my current installation, same hardware but upgraded to
Debian Stretch with the 4.9 kernel. The kernel panic no longer occurs.

I do not have any machines running the 3.16 version anymore to verify if
it still occurs on that.

Regards,

Gary

Hi Gary,

you reported this bug regarding nmap induced kernel panics a few years
ago: https://bugs.debian.org/772731

Do you still experience this bug?  If so, can you provide any
information regarding the kernel panic (e.g. picture of the backtrace
printed by the kernel) so we can investigate?

Thanks
Lukas



Bug#772731: nmap -O causes occasional kernel panic

2014-12-10 Thread Gary
Package: nmap
Version: 6.47-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Running nmap -O as root on a local ip address will
occasionally cause a kernel panic within a few seconds
of starting.

Another user in #debian-next has also experienced this.

I wasn't sure if this should be filed against nmap or
the linux kernel package. If you need any further information
please let me know.

Regards,

Gary

Looks to me like a kernel issue. Any information the kernel manages to
output when it crashes would certainly be helpful.

Cheers,
