This bug was filed from the Socorro interface and is report bp-79e40c32-e0d9-45ad-8d51-ea9402151019. ============================================================= This has the same signature as bug 1216072 that bholley has a patch for, and bug 1215398 which is patched on my build. It has a different stack though: nsContentUtils::IsCallerChrome is not called from nsGlobalWindow::MoveByOuter but from mozilla::dom::HTMLMediaElement::Play(mozilla::ErrorResult&). That call was added by cpearce in bug 1180563 in July and I haven't noticed this crash until now. Steps are pretty reliable (and relevant to bug 1189563), at least on my Mac OS X system -- haven't tried elsewhere. 1. Command-Click on a youtube link to open in the background (doesn't seem to matter which) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4niz8TfY794 2. wait several seconds to make sure it's all loaded 3. click on the new tab -- boom. Expected results: get to watch a video Actual results: get reacquainted with about:sessionrestore If I normal-click the link it works fine, as does creating a new tab and then pasting the URL into the current tab.
Thanks for filing this dan, patch coming up.

Comment on attachment 8675914 [details] [diff] [review] Hoist IsCallerChrome check in HTMLMediaElement::Play to API entry point. v1 I'd really rather we kept PlayInternal as a void method taking an ErrorResult arg. I keep hoping people will stop using the intended-to-be-transitional operator= on ErrorResult... r=me

I did it this way because things that take ErrorResult& look like WebIDL APIs, and I was trying to distinguish them that way. Would you prefer for me to switch it?

I guess I can live with this returning nsresult, esp. if we make the caller use an nsresult temporary and Throw it if NS_FAILED instead of using operator=.
