Hello,
When I use the Tor Browser Bundle (2.3.25-8, based on Portable Apps's
Firefox ESR 17.0.6, Vidalia 0.2.21, and Tor 0.2.3.25) on Windows, it
crashes ("tbb-browser.exe has stopped working") after about a whole day of
use on a particular discussion site with many other tabs open (maybe
15-20). The regular Firefox stable (now on version 22) almost never
crashes for me, with typically double the number of tabs open, plugins,
etc.
The second time it crashed, OllyDbg was unable to attach to the crashed
process, so I restarted TBB and attached OllyDbg to tbb-browser.exe and
waited. After about 6-8 hours, it finally crashed:
Access violation when reading [0x00000028] in CPU - main thread at
xul+0xE271B (xul.66B6271B) - Application was unable to process exception.
When this happened, ollydbg.exe and tbb-browser.exe together had a total
of 260MB allocated, which is next to nothing (I have another 1GB of free
memory).
The crash occurs here:

As this was with the precompiled TBB binary which lacks debugging symbols,
a string referenced further down in the function helped me identify that
the crash occurred in imgCacheValidator::OnStartRequest(), implemented in
mozilla-esr17/image/src/imgLoader.cpp.
The disassembly given above corresponds to the following code (line 2086
of imgLoader.cpp):
{{{
channel->GetURI(getter_AddRefs(channelURI));
if (channelURI)
channelURI->Equals(mRequest->mCurrentURI, &sameURI);
}}}
For whatever reason, mRequest was null at this instance when channelURI
was non-null. This error is, as far as everything seems, perfectly
recoverable (TBB will resume working) if you return if mRequest was null.
(Similar segfaults will occur at xul+0xE2CC3 (xul.66B62CC3), xul+0xE2818
(xul.66B62818), and so in which is why you must actually leave
imgCacheValidator::OnStartRequest.)
I'm attaching a partial stack dump and the memory of the relevant objects.
As to whether the bug was introduced by Mozilla, Portable Apps, or Tor,
I'm not certain, so I'm just reporting it to all three.
