1749861 - webrtcindicator.xhtml YSOD

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1639821

(Core :: General, defect)

Description

[Zibi Braniecki [:zbraniecki][:gandalf]]

I was able to reproduce webrtcindicator.xhtml YSOD using FIrefox 91 esr on Mac OS 11.6.

Here's the video: https://youtu.be/iJgeyvL2rK0

:kershaw, :jesup, :bwc - NI'ing you to triage this and link to appropriate bugs and components. It seems to refute the hypothesis that webrtcindicator.xhtml YSODs are coming only from testing infra and a hypothesis that only old installations are affected.

This is a new installation, fresh setup.

It may be somehow related to MacOS Permissions for screen sharing. When I enabled screen sharing permissions for Firefox in OS preferences I can no longer reproduce the YSOD.

The implication of zibi's comments is that we've seen webrtcindicator.xhtml YSODs before... where is this info/bugs?

I've added some see-alsos to point to those bugs. Bug 1703346 is particularly notable here.

We had a band-aid fix that worked over in bug 1703346 that was not cleared for landing, does that stop the YSOD for you Zibi?

I don't think there are bugs about this particular document's YSOD beyond of what Byron linked.

But if you open the telemetry queries/charts/dashboards for YSODs that I linked in my last email (I don't have access to them anymore), you'll see that webrtcindicator.xhtml is one of the most common remaining YSOD documents.

We weren't sure if that is just the test that Byron was fixing, or does it happen in the wild for our users and this bug is to confirm that it happens in the wild to users :)
