What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
2. place the *.dmp and symbols next to minidump_stackwalk
3. run minidump_stackwalk
> ./minidump_stackwalk 7ab08c56-c954-4238-09b222ab-e7a5bf23.dmp ./symbols -s

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
- Expect to see decoded stack.
- Instead it goes to infinity loop consuming gigabytes of memory.

I use x86 build of minidump_stackwalk which I get from the most recent version of the source code. The problem happens in about 1 out of 3-4 cases.
I see this place and https://bugs.chromium.org/ are dead, no responses from developers to tickets. What is the right place to report such bugs?
