If you are in a company that codes largely in C, do a pool and report back. I'm honestly curious.

Unfortunately, I don't work in such a company.

A completely unrepresentative poll among two C++ programmers showed that 50% thought it was a segfault, whereas the other 50% suggested it could be undefined behavior, deducing that from the knowledge that the behavior is different in Linux userspace and kernel.

Although I wouldn't call those two typical C++ programmers. They do security CTFs for fun, so they might have a broader knowledge about exploitable behaviors in C/C++ code.
