Affected Platforms

  • Windows 10 64bit
  • Ubuntu 18.04 64bit

Unaffected platforms

  • macOS 10.10.5 (not sure for now, didn't managed to reproduce on macOS after a couple of tries. Will get back and investigate further).

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Launch Firefox with a clean profile.
  2. Access the about:config page.
  3. Create the fission.autostart pref and set it to true
  4. Access the following webpage
  5. Wait for the page to fully load and start scrolling (maybe refresh the page a couple of times).

Expected Results

  • Firefox is stable and the website is successfully loaded.

Actual Results

  • Tab crash
Summary: Crash in [@ nsGlobalWindowOuter::GetPrincipal] → [Fission] Crash in [@ nsGlobalWindowOuter::GetPrincipal]
Fission Milestone: --- → M4
Flags: needinfo?(continuation)

My guess is that we're trying to postmessage to a BrowsingContext where the window is null, but I'd have to check. Presumably the fix to that would be to bail out in that case.

Assignee: nobody → continuation
Flags: needinfo?(continuation)
Priority: -- → P2

I couldn't reproduce the crash, but there are a few places in
ContentChild where we grab a window off of a BC without checking if
the window exists, so I added null checks.
