Steps to reproduce the issue:
1. router ospf6
2. redistribute static
3. ipv6 route 1::1/128 Null0
4. no redistribute static
5. wait for Max aged LSA to flush
6. Check DB, crash occurs.
RCA:
Crash occurred while accessing listgetdata(listhead(ospf6->area_list))
When there is no area attached to any of the interface listhead(ospf6->area_list)
is NULL. Therefore it crashed due to NULL access.
Fix:
Check before accessing null pointer.
