Description Alejandro Diaz Caro 2009-12-13 18:49:59 UTC
Entering to this page http://www.campusfrance.org/fr/d-catalogue/lm/master.htm I get an "The following plug-in has crashed: /usr/lib64/chromium-browser/plugins/libflashplayer.so" in chromium. Firefox doesn't even show that, firefox directly crash. Konqueror shows the "crash reporting assistant" without any useful data, just "segmentation fault" of nspluginviewer.

Adobe-flash version 10.0.32.18
Firefox version 3.5.4 (compiled, not binary)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter to http://www.campusfrance.org/fr/d-catalogue/lm/master.htm
2. Wait until it crash

Actual Results:  
Crash of the plugin or the browser, depending on the browser

Expected Results:  
Not crash, or, at least, firefox shouldn't crash

Comment 1 Rafał Mużyło 2009-12-13 18:57:14 UTC
Works for me with adobe-flash-10.0.42.34 and icecat-3.5.5.

Any usable backtraces ?

I am using the amd64 adobe-flash (10.0.42.34 is masked by keyword ~amd64) and icecat is masked also by keyword ~amd64

> Any usable backtraces ?

No, sorry.

I tested it with firefox again and it works! It seems they changed something in the page, however Konqueror and Chromium still crash (konqueror shows the kde crash handler and chromium a message saying it crashed).

The URL has been changed, now it is http://www.campusfrance.org/fria0910/lm/master.html

Just in case they change it again, the idea is to go to http://www.campusfrance.org, then click on "rechercher" under "trouvez vottre formation" and then "Master".

I guess it is a problem with a poorly programmed flash, and flash player crashing cannot be solved by the gentoo developers because it is closed source, so, shall we close this bug?

Yes.  I would recommend trying the latest version (now 10.0.45.2), and if it persists, report it to Adobe directly since they are the only people who can fix it:
