This is a bug report for perl from jeremy@​feusi.co,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.40 running under perl 5.26.1.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Perl segfaults when executing the attached program (perl <progname>) due to a null pointer dereference in Perl_pp_multiconcat.
This bug can also reproduced on archlinux and debian with standard installation configuration and version 5.26.1.

Detailed backtrace​:

Hi all!

Here is the program​:

<<<<<

#!./perl
m/(?{print <<EOF
A$A
EOF
})/g;
eval 's/${\%A}{3}//e';

it segfaults both /usr/bin/perl and bleadperl on my mageia v7 x64 system.

It can be reduced further to

  my $a="";
  m/(?{"A$a"})/;
  eval 'm//';

It's something to do with the 'use last successful match' behaviour of
m//; when the code block in the regex is executed for a second time,
it looks like the wrong pad is in use and padsv($a) returns a null
pointer or other garbage.

The bug is present back to at least 5.8.9, so its (fortunately) not a
regression introduced by pp_multiconcat.
