Description

When opening or closing tabs for certain websites Brave crashes.

Steps to Reproduce

Certain examples (but not limited to):

  1. open browser, open several (5-6) tabs and go anywhere (let's say you go to github.com)

  2. open a new tab, go to mail.google.com, do stuff

  3. click the close tab X icon

  4. Brave crashes

  5. do the same as above only instead of going to mail.google.com go to news.google.com

  6. right click on any link to a news site away from google, click "open link in new tab"

  7. Brave crashes about 60-70% of the time

There are several other sites that cause the browser to crash, I simply can't remember them all.
