Expected Behavior
In interaction mode with the browser, a filepicker would be opened when necessary, allowing to choose a file.
Current Behavior
OBS completely crashes, due to a segmentation fault.
Steps to Reproduce
- Set as target any website that would open a filepicker.
- Enter interact mode with the browser.
- Do the action that would open the filepicker.
- OBS should close instantly.
Anything else we should know?
Both me and a friend have tried reproducing this, both on the flatpak version, it crashes every time.
I can confirm this occurs on the Flatpak on GNOME, including when building my own Flatpak using Builder. It does not occur on standard builds.
This occurs both in browser docks and browser sources. Note that while using the file picker in browser sources is not officially supported, crashing is never a solution.
Annoyingly, I'm unable to get debug symbols to load with my local OBS/CEF build, and the CEF debug.log terminates immediately, so it doesn't log whatever goes wrong within CEF in this situation. I will continue trying to track down this bug.
Right, I've finally managed to get the Flatpak to give me proper debugging information.
Note: this crash is limited to Flatpak at this time.
If a file browser is opened via the Inspect dialog of a browser source, the crash occurs on line 443, where it attempts to fetch a window handle.
If a file browser is opened via a Browser Dock, the crash occurs deeper, within the function called in 446. The code that crashes seems to be in Chromium itself.
I expect the cause of both is the same, even though the stack traces are different. It's important to note that we build CEF with use_gtk=false, however as this crash does not occur the apt package & local builds, I don't expect it's the cause.
This likely leaves it to either be a missing runtime dependency, or more likely a Flatpak sandbox issue. Unfortunately, this means it's outside my skillset. I will do what digging I can, and discuss with people who know Flatpak and/or CEF more in-depth.
Coming from obsproject/obs-studio#8012, since the issues seem related, thought i'd also say that for me, the crash happens on both the PPA package, custom build from source and Flatpak so i don't think it's a Flatpak related issue
I'm on Ubuntu MATE 22.10, a friend of mine also reproduced this issue on Linux Mint Cinnamon 21.1
Hmm, that's helpful. As I'm on 22.04 LTS, I can't reproduce - even on MATE, but I'll try on 22.10.
The issue is reproducable in Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. (at least in Browser Dock)
Does anyone else can confirm the issue or give me a hint for a workarround?
I can confirm it still happens in latest flatpak release, and i unfortunately haven't found a workaround as of yet.
Is that issue still open? Or I miss something?
As my OBS (30.0.2) installed either via PPA or Flatpack on Ubuntu 22.04 crashes while trying open a file in browser (in Dock, like Lower Third plugin, or just in browser). Also tried older versions of OBS (like 29.1.2) and still the same result - OBS closes its self while trying to open file manager via < input type="file" >.
Yes this issue is still open, if it wasn't, it would've been marked as closed
Yes, the issue is still open. I would really appreciate if it could be fixed.
Got a backtrace on this, but I is missing a lot of symbols. I'm not sure how to get a better trace with the source file and line number.
