Testing on Linux (Mint/Ubuntu Xenial), gltf-viewer crashes when loading some .glb files. I investigated with an debug enabled build and the backtrace is :

It seems that in Extension<StreamReader>::extract_bytes the variable buffer, a pointer to an allocated buffer from alloca(size) is corrupted or the heap itself is corrupted, in any case gdb can’t dump the memory at that location. The size variable seems ok, it looks like the size of the buffer being read.
Reading the same model as .gltf works though (but it’s extremely slow, I’ll make another post about that problem)
