Firefox crashes when signing in to ebay

[bwallum]

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

This is repeatable every time by going to ebay.co.uk and attempting to login. If crashes at about 20 seconds from clicking the sign in button.

This is probably a duplicate bug of:

firefox crashed with SIGSEGV in CERT_PKIXVerifyCert()

It would be really useful to users registering bugs if the auto report could be made viewable when a list of possible bugs is shown on launchpad. That way, users could look at the auto report and check against the possible list. I know the auto report can be viewed but this is before sending and before a list of possible matches to reported bugs is available.

Duplications may be considerably reduced if it was made easy to do the above check.

Apologies for duping this one.

I can confirm also, same thing on ebay.it, happens almost immediately when signing into my ebay or following the sign in link

[Matteo Brancaleoni (mbrancaleoni)]

Attacched core file backtrace with gdb.

Attacched core dump file.

Just for reference,

the plain firefox 3b4 from mozilla website doesn't not crash.

I have the exact same problem. I go to ebay.com and click on 'Sign In' and firefox crashes. It also happens with Windows Live Mail also. When I try to sign in, firefox crashes one me.

[Matteo Brancaleoni (mbrancaleoni)]

With today updates the problem seems fixed.no more crashes (at least on ebay signon).

[bwallum (rbw2)]

Fixed for me too in 3b5
