Chrome crashes when I open a webpage written with Web Components. It started happening with version 128.0.6613.113. I have the latest version installed: 128.0.6613.120, even with this version chrome crashes.

It is very strange as there are no logs in the console. I have tried quantifying the memory while opening this webpage, nothing too crazy in terms if memory.

Once it crashes, I am unable to inspect or reload the webpage.

This application is a private network application. Here is the tech stack I am using:

  • Java
  • Kotlin (For backend)
  • JavaScript
  • TypeScript
  • Lit-elements
  • Web components
  • Cloudfoundry

    We are seeing something similar. Can it be related to window.open from javacript? In our environment we have registered a custom protocol handler, and when trying to open that from javascript using window.open, the browser crashes. Commented Sep 5, 2024 at 11:29
  • Yes, If I use window.open('/foo/bar', '_self'); it works (not always though) Commented Sep 8, 2024 at 5:33

I think it is related to this bug: https://support.google.com/chrome/a/thread/292536913/crash-on-calling-custom-protocol-handler-chrome-dynamicsnav-in-new-version-128-0-6613-85?hl=en

Thanks for sharing. Were you able to find out any concrete workaround for this?
@AahladKethineedi - yes. We replaced windows.open() with a solution that used an iframe to open the url. You can also use windows open with a popup, but that is not pretty.

Update: With latest chrome version(128.0.6613.138) this issue has been fixed.
