I'm the one that asked for help on Mozilla Support in relation to these crashes & Firefox Sync not working correctly.

The crashes happen both while actively using Firefox and also when Firefox is in the background.

Let me know if you want me to post more crash logs!

Since 168 bytes are being allocated, this likely isn't graphics related.
