I'm suspending this then since it was a one time problem on an old now unsupported version of Asterisk. If it occurs again you can comment and this will automatically reopen.

>          Components: Applications/app_voicemail, Core/General
>    Affects Versions: 1.8.21.0

> One of our 1.8.21 servers experienced a segmentation fault while a user was checking their voicemail using app_voicemail. I believe that the segfault happened in {{ast_variable_update}} because the {{category}} variable was null.
> In the GDB output you can see that the {{msg_cat}} variable is null. Which is then passed into {{ast_variable_update}}. I don't know enough about the Asterisk source to know if that is a valid value, perhaps a call to {{ast_category_exist}} should happen first? Or maybe we should check for a null value?
