Symptoms

TMM SIGSEGV and crash when memory allocation fails.

Impact

TMM SIGSEGV and crash. Traffic disrupted while tmm restarts.

Conditions

Although the specific conditions under which this occurs are not well understood, it appears that the issue occurs when the SSL operation detects an error and processes the connection for removal from the SSL queue. Before the connection is removed, another command attempts to remove the connection a second time, which causes the issue to occur.

Workaround

None known at this time.
