Full trace of ksysguardd crash

SUMMARY

I'm using Plasma 5.27.3 on Wayland in a Fedora 38 KDE Plasma installation. I started ksysguard from ksysguard-5.22.0-8.fc38.x86_64. A crash notification appeared. gnome-abrt and coredumpctl showed that ksysguardd crashed repeatedly after starting ksysguard when lmSensors was being initalized. The function __GI___fortify_fail showed the error "buffer overflow detected" in frame 5 of the trace.

Core was generated by `/usr/bin/ksysguardd'.
Program terminated with signal SIGABRT, Aborted.

The crash happened 264 times according to coredumpctl. I'm attaching the full trace.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot a Fedora 38 KDE Plasma installation updated to 2023-3-26 with the updates-testing repo enabled
2. Log in to Plasma on Wayland
3. Start ksysguard

OBSERVED RESULT
ksysguardd crashed repeatedly after starting ksysguard with a buffer overflow detected

EXPECTED RESULT
No crashes would happen.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 38
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.104.0
Qt Version: 5.15.8

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Fedora 38 involved a change to use the build flag _FORTIFY_SOURCE=3  https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Add_FORTIFY_SOURCE%3D3_to_distribution_build_flags That change might be involved in the buffer overflow being detected.
