Crash Data

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:95.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/95.0

Steps to reproduce:

  • Create a new mail
  • Insert -> Image
  • Select a huge GIF file (> 20 MB) => used file 24.7MB 1417x1417 pixels - source : https://we.tl/t-usHk4UJqUV
  • Validate the insert window

Actual results:

Thunderbird crash
See bugreports : https://crash-stats.thunderbird.net/report/bp-d2b945e1-4278-46e6-a289-de7ed1220105

Expected results:

Inserting the image or displaying an error message

I can confirm this for TB91.2 +
TB78.14 is OK

I have tested it with a ".BMP" file with 3000x2000 pixel (19667kB). So it's not GIF related.
A JPG image with larger resolution but smaller file size does not crash.

The use of the menu "Insert -> Image" is a prerequisite for the bug to occur. Droping of the same image with the mouse works fine.

Menu: Insert -> Image
=> <choose Image>
=> <change to other tab like "Dimensions">
=> [OK]
...also works fine!

The crash signature matches to previously fixed Bug 1718333 - Crash in [@ mozilla::ipc::NodeController::DeserializeEventMessage] but I don't know that it is relevant to this Thunderbird crash.

Current Daily still crashes:
