The (bad) is after the faulting instruction, but gives an hint:

  2e:	0f 84 67 ff ff ff    	je     0xffffffffffffff9b
  34:	48 89 ef             	mov    %rbp,%rdi
  37:	e8 cf 70 76 00       	call   0x76710b
  3c:	e9                   	.byte 0xe9

That's an invalid opcode, which means that memory is corrupted.

Thanks,
