"debug k" freezing Cisco routers?

Hi All,

At level 15 permissions, when I enter "debug k" on the CLI the router
freezes immediately, requiring a manual reboot.

While not a vulnerability per se, perhaps something to keep in mind
from the fat-finger risk?

Anyone else seeing this?

Kindest regards,
