## Symptoms

- Output of the "`ips stat`" command ends with "`Segmentation fault (core dumped)`".

Example:

```

For example:
[Expert@FW:0]# ips stat
IPS Status: Enabled
Active Profiles:

... ...

Segmentation fault (core dumped)
```

## Cause

The "`ips stat`" command reads the *$FWDIR/log/ips_profiles_report.csv* file to show the list of IPS Profiles.

The "`ips stat`" command fails, if at least one line in that file contains more than 1024 characters.
