998591 - PDF Search always causes EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_WRITE -- @0x1a9be110 and @0x1beb4f80 and ... .

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: PDF Viewer, defect)

Description

[Rob]

On WinXP when I open a PDF and attempt to search for a text string I get an EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_WRITE and the Browser crashes at different addresses (so "Related Bugs" is going to be blank or unreliable).

I only have a few Tabs open so Memory is not an issue.

I am going to make this only "Critical", but you can bump it up to "Blocker". You can change the Title if you have a better suggestion.

STR:

1. Open https://www.samsung-security.com/SAMSUNG/upload/Product_Specifications/Samsung-WiseNetIII-Brochure.pdf .
2. Hit CTRL-F .
3. Type "120" [Enter] .
4. Crash 100% at different addresses.

Can you replicate issue with fresh profile? (I see you have lots of extensions installed) I cannot replicate the issue on Windows 7.
