Since it exits with signal 11 it might be related to this bug:

https://github.com/SpiderLabs/ModSecurity/issues/23

It was fixed in this commit

https://github.com/SpiderLabs/ModSecurity/commit/3f6c14de5993b8b2c66e6317af1680f2a007aead

and should be part of 2.7.2 and later. Maybe the fix didn't catch all
similar situations?
