Issue with Bash

[Rishita Saha16]

   Hi All,

   We are using Bash 5.0 (64bit built using gcc ) in AIX 7.2 machine .This
   is the spec file for reference -->
   [1]https://public.dhe.ibm.com/aix/freeSoftware/aixtoolbox/SPECS/bash-5.
   0-1.spec.
   We are seeing recurring bash core dumps on our servers. Leaving bash
   sessions running on the servers for extended periods of time causes the
   core dump (to recreate it, we left httpd running for about a week and a
   half and encountered the core dump). I am hereby sharing the stack
   trace of the core so generated.

   From the stack trace , it looks like bash is looping in a code that is
   setting terminal attributes in response to a signal, and dumps core
   once it runs out of stack.
   Any insights will be greatly helpful.
