Description

We also found another null dereference involving the Proc class. The stack trace is similar to the closed issue #6039, but it was all triggered while handling the allocated instance of Proc.

Proof of Concept

$ mruby <poc_file>

poc.zip

Stack Trace

We've attached the first stack trace for reference. All three poc exhibit similar stack traces.
