Hello. Need a bit of help here. I use vaultwarden without docker. Recently I found that there are a lot of errors like this in vaultwarden log.

```auto

```

After every panic it crashes until systemd restart it. I’m the only one who use my vaultwarden service and most of the time I use it from one client at a time. Found nothing similar in bugtracker. Any ideas why could this happen? Usually I see up to 20 times of such panic state during a day.

Vaultwarden 1.24.0

This should be fixed in the latest commits, as of a couple of days ago. Not sure where you got your binary from, but you should rebuild the latest code or extract the binary from the Docker image tagged `testing`.

Thanks for the info. I built my binary from official source (github) a couple of weeks ago. Gonna rebuild soon.
