Public bug reported:

I tried to execute VLC when I forcefully enabled Shadow Stack on my
system using the environment variable
GLIBC_TUNABLES=glibc.cpu.hwcaps=SHSTK and it didn't run correctly:

If I check the library, it doesn't show Shadow Stack enabled. The command:
readelf -a /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmpg123.so.0|grep STK
Returns nothing.
As control group, I tried with libssl3:
➜ readelf -a /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.so.3 |grep STK
      Properties: x86 feature: IBT, SHSTK
The same problem happened with:
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5
