>      Security Level: None
>          Components: Core/Channels

> We are having daily core dumps.
> ast_manager_build_channel_state_string_prefix was passed a null snapshot, upon looking around the code base there are many paths where it is called with out first checking.
> This problem will keep happening if it is reliant on callers of this method to first check the arg. The simple solution is to do a null check on the snapshot in ast_manager_build_channel_state_string_prefix and return NULL.
> I will attach a patch shortly.
