I guess it's a problem related to BackgroundPageThumbs.jsm

Note that the browser doesn't crash.

It's probably crashing trying to capture a thumbnail for a specific page on your about:newtab that doesn't have one yet. Any chance you could figure out which it is? :)

The crash occurs as long as there's a thumbnail present in about:newtab, it doesn't depend on a particular thumbnail.

I haven't any plugin installed, I don't know if it's a useful information.

This is not a plugin crash: plugin-container is used for both plugin and content processes, and this is a content process.

Also:
If I execute Firefox with the "-P profile" option, the process doesn't terminate.
If I execute Firefox with the "-P" option, it crashes on exit (when the first process is terminated, not the actual Firefox process) with this message: "Assertion failure: !JSRuntime::hasLiveRuntimes() (forgot to destroy a runtime before shutting down), at /home/marco/Documents/FD/src/js/src/jsapi.cpp:710"

Other messages while running Firefox:
"[Child 29215] ###!!! ASSERTION: nsSSLStatus has null mServerCert or was called in the content process: 'Error'"
