PostgreSQL version: 11.2
Operating system: Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS
Description:

According to the documentation [1], replication protocol supports SHOW
command, which is similar to the SQL command SHOW [2], so I tried to execute
"SHOW ALL;" and walsender crashed with the following stack-trace:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

I don't think that such a crash is expected behavior. Either it should
return the table with all settings or report simply error out with message
'unrecognized configuration parameter "ALL"'.
