Maddi, any specific action when the crash occurred? Thank you.

Comment 2

[Maddi]

Right-click on the Firefox icon in Debian Stable Gnome. Password manager "Secrects" was open. This is the second time the crash has happened in this combination.

I can reproduce this relatively reliably (it happens on launch around 5-10% of the time) on Raspberry Pi OS (based on Debian) Bookworm on Raspberry Pi 4. See https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/e2a7693c-0264-4c69-b5b0-bd7ab0250917

This is bad enough that it's blocking the release of Firefox 143.0 on Raspberry Pi OS.

This looks like a classic setenv/getenv race, see also 1752703 and 1748366

Are you able to reproduce under rr? (assuming this is aarch64)

I've tested quite hard for half an hour and I can't seem to reproduce this any more (testing with Firefox 144 and now on Raspberry Pi OS trixie on the same Raspberry Pi 4).
