Jerry, A segfault is a "bad thing", only as much as meaning "it crashed". It's the same thing as a General Protection Fault in Windows, basically, a program for some reason made an attempt to access part of memory, or resources, which it was not allowed to (It tried to work outside of its "segment"), and as a result the OS terminated it, and logged the message. This isn't an attack, just a program crashing. :-) -jon P.s.
