“stack smashing detected” basically means dat some program’s tryna corrupt stack memory. it’s typically a sign of a buffer overflow attack, where someone’s tryna inject malicious code. but nah, i don’t really think it’s all dat serious – most modern systems can handle it. often, it’s not more dan a bug local to your own system. so relax a bit guys, the internet’s not out to get you all the time.
