When I try set sensor_msgs/JointState and publish it

ros::Publisher joint_msg_pub = node.advertise<sensor_msgs::jointstate>("leg_joints_states", 1);
sensor_msgs::JointState joint_msg;
joint_msg.name[0] = "coxa_joint_r1";
joint_msg.position[0] = q_out(0);
joint_msg_pub.publish(joint_msg);

But when I launch node I get segmentation fault. I incorrectly set the value in the message? </sensor_msgs::jointstate>

This code example won't compile.
You are setting the first elements of the vectors, but there are 0 elements in a new message that you create. Use .push_back instead of setting the values to add new values.
