I crash on Mac using Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.9a8pre) Gecko/2007091204 Minefield/3.0a8pre. Changing to all.

Because it'll drive timeless crazy having it hidden away, despite it not being too useful, that's

Thread 11 Crashed:
0   ...romedia.Flash Player.plugin 	0x16bf2696 Flash_EnforceLocalSecurity + 360688
1   libSystem.B.dylib              	0x90024227 _pthread_body + 84

And I crashed 1.8.1.7/Win at work a couple of times, with QuickTime 6.something (oops, might want to update more often) and 7.whatever, both showing nothing but QuickTime itself - TB35919617 in QuickTime.qts and TB35922329 in QuickTimeWebHelper.qtx

For me the crash was initiated by several "illegal" operations and eventually crashes as a result of trying to many times.  i would suggest for people to look into the sourse and see what "illegal" operation is happening.

Could this simply be a bug in quicktime? The stack in the crash report seems to indicate so, but it's kind of broken.

[Jonas Sicking (:sicking) No longer reading bugmail consistently]

Since there is no indication that this is our fault (like it being a regression), and the stack points to quicktime, i don't think there is much we can do here except get in contact with apple and give them the testcase.

Our testing indicates that the Flash Player has nothing to do with this crash.

Closing old bugs in the Plugins component. We aren't going to track issues in 3rd-party plugins in the Mozilla bug tracker. In addition, support for NPAPI plugins will be removed at the end of this year; for more details see the post at https://blog.mozilla.org/futurereleases/2015/10/08/npapi-plugins-in-firefox/

If there is a serious bug in Firefox, it needs to be filed in the "Core" product, "Plug-Ins" component.
