Created attachment 473274 [details] Thread Stack Trace We are experiencing thousands of crashes in our application when attempting to present the camera through a Web View. The app crashes during this process, and the crash logs point to WebCore::AVVideoCaptureSource::create WebCore::RealtimeMediaSourceCenter::getUserMediaDevices. This issue has **only** been observed **in iOS 18.2 beta** versions (beta 1 - 22C5109p, beta 2 - 22C5125e, beta 3 - 22C5131e). In iOS versions below 18.2, the functionality works and we haven't identified any correlation with specific device models. The problem seems to stem from a WebCore framework introduced in these beta releases 18.2. We kindly request a review and fix for this issue in upcoming beta releases to restore functionality. Let us know if there are any workarounds or adjustments we can implement in the interim. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Thank you for the report. I am unable to locate any other reports of this, or any telemetry showing this crash. Would you be willing provide more information elsewhere (preferably https://feedbackassistant.apple.com/, or you could email me directly)? - full crash log - sysdiagnose - steps to reproduce - or at least the application bundle ID, if none the above is possible.

Thanks Pavel, In the email, could you tell us how frequent the crash is and if you have workarounds to prevent usage of the camera?

Thank you, Youenn. We are observing 1,000 to 1,600 crashes per day on Sentry related to this issue. Unfortunately, we cannot prevent the use of the camera in the Web View, as it is a core functionality required for identity verification processes, e.g., scanning a Driver’s License.

Hi team, We are currently observing over 2.9K crashes in our app related to this issue. Since the fix has not been included in iOS 18.2 beta 4, this problem continues to affect a critical workflow in our app. We would like to test whether the PR has resolved this issue. Could you please provide any suggestions on how we might test this fix before the release of iOS 18.2 beta 5? Additionally, we would greatly appreciate any information on whether this fix is planned to be included in beta 5. Thank you for your assistance!

Hi Pavel, could you tell me steps to reproduce this crash? I tried to signup as a dasher but I just get a message saying that San Francisco is currently closed to new dashers, and can't get to a point of opening camera in a web view.

We are still facing the same crash trying to establish a WebRTC connection on an iPad running ipados 18.5 and on any iOS simulator. It consistently happens while loading a web page after using an NSAttributedString with NSAttributedString.DocumentType.html anywhere in the project.

Hi Pavlo, the latest iOS 18.6 beta should have a fix for a crash related to microphone capture, can you have a try? Also, can you provide the crash trace, here or privately at youenn@apple.com?

Thank you, Youenn! After installing the iPadOS 18.6 beta 2 the crash is indeed gone.
