[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1046210@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This bug was fixed in the package network-manager-applet -
0.9.10.1-0ubuntu2

---------------
network-manager-applet (0.9.10.1-0ubuntu2) vivid; urgency=medium

  * debian/patches/nm-applet-use-indicator.patch: initialize GSList dupes var
    to NULL. Thanks to Patrik Fimml for the patch. (LP: #1046210)
  * debian/patches/rebuild_menu_after_init.patch: use a g_idle_add rather than
    a 30 second timeout, so as to make sure the menu update can't run until
    foo_set_initial_state did. (LP: #1418260)
  * debian/patches/hide_virtual_devices.patch: don't show bridge, bond, team,
    or vlan devices: they were only recently added to NM and nm-applet, and
    given that they are usually not managed, showing them tends to be
    confusing since they are usually the result of underlying software which
    might not expect their state to get changed by NM. (LP: #1423819)

Title:
  segfault in create_new_ap_item

Status in network-manager-applet package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  In certain circumstances, nm-applet can crash in create_new_ap_item.
  This is caused by the "dupes" variable introduced in debian/patches
  /nm-applet-use-indicator.patch not being initialized.

  Note that I first observed this only with optimizations turned off
  (-O0), so apparently if one gets lucky, -O2 will cause the variable to
  be initialized to NULL.
