Virtual Servers on muffy.g.faelix.net suffered a networking outage for a short while. We have found that this is due to a bug in the virtual switch we use, Open vSwitch, when it encounters a crafted packet:
Jun 3 12:07:42 muffy ovs-vswitchd: ovs|00002|daemon_unix(monitor)|ERR|1 crashes: pid 1891 died, killed (Segmentation fault), core dumped, restarting Jun 3 12:07:42 muffy ovs-vswitchd: ovs|00003|daemon_unix(monitor)|EMER|fork child died before signaling startup (killed (Segmentation fault))
This morning we have identified that this is fixed in a more recent upstream version, and so we will plan some maintenance to upgrade all our hosts.
