Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Rémi Denis-Courmont (rdenis)]

This looks like a memory corruption within GTK. Unfortunately, with no details on how to reproduce the problem, no valgrind trace and a very incomplete stack trace, this bug report is unexploitable as it is.
