[strongSwan] strongswan 4.5.0: charon unstable when establishing a lot of connections

[Andreas Steffen]

Hello Wolfgang,

charon crashes which it shouldn't. You could help us in debugging
the problem by sending us a core dump analysis:

ulimit -c unlimited

start strongSwan (if possible with the ipsec start --nofork option which
might generate a backtrace automatically after the crash). Otherwise
analyse the dump manually with

gdb /usr/libexec/ipsec/charon core
..
 > where

and send us the trace.

Best regards

Andreas
