This is an upstream bug, so I'm filing this bizarre bug report just for the benefit of future googlers: With Flash enabled in firefox-40.0.2, go to www.npr.org and click on "NPR Hourly Newscast" (right upper corner of the screen): the Flash player will crash. Actually, the crash happens only if you happen to have *both* the regular Flash plugin *and* the libfreshwrapper-pepperflash.so plugin installed at the same time. I removed /usr/lib64/nsbrowser/plugins/libfreshwrapper-pepperflash.so and the crash went away. (I can't even remember how that plugin got installed, but I don't need it and it causes a problem.) This is new behaviour in firefox-bin-40.0.2: I had both kinds of Flash plugins installed for months and didn't see this crash with firefox-bin-38* and 39*. Reproducible: Always

Not sure if it's the same bug, but I'm experiencing crashing since Firefox 40.0.2, too. I've tried to make a backtrace, but the only thing it made is: (gdb) bt #0 0x00007fed5f32d009 in raise () from /lib64/libpthread.so.0 #1 0x00007fed5bfcd31f in ??

Do you have www-plugins/freshplayerplugin installed? If yes, which package pulled it in as a dependency, and what happens if you un-merge it?
