Description:
X11VNC crashes after just a few minutes, at random, with a stack smashing error. Found the following forum post showing the issue has existed for at least a month: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=213859 Bug reported upstream: https://github.com/LibVNC/x11vnc/issues/27 Steps to reproduce: - Run x11vnc with any Window Manager (I can confirm it crashes with i3wm at the least). - Connect to the VNC server with your client of choice (I have tested it with RealVNC Viewer on OSX, as well as TigerVNC Viewer) - Attempt to browse the web, use the terminal, adjust windows etc. - After a few minutes, x11vnc will crash with "Stack Smashing detected" |
