Description asai 2018-04-09 19:39:42 CEST 
Four-body phase-space decay sets incorrect daughter momentum. Occasionally a secondary gets 10^70 (!) GeV or uninitialized (nan).
Comment 1 asai 2018-04-09 19:41:12 CEST 
The error was introduced in version 10.2. The fix will be included in the next patch release.
Comment 2 John Apostolakis 2018-06-11 14:33:27 CEST 
Patch 2 for release 10.4 included a fix for this issue, as recorded in the release notes at http://geant4-data.web.cern.ch/geant4-data/ReleaseNotes/Patch4.10.4-2.txt
