Uploading the build-info and a zip with a pcap and rules to reproduce the bug.

The password for the zip is: password

Steps to reproduce the bug:
- Start suricata in PCAP mode
- Send signal SIGUSR2 to reload the signatures
- Replay the pcap on the sniffing interface

This should lead to the segmentation fault
