The Mozilla documentation says: "And as always when working with reference counted NPObjects, the caller is responsible for calling NPN_ReleaseObject on the NPObject to drop the reference." Browsers assume that the plugin does the right thing and always call NPN_ReleaseObject. At some point the object is released and deallocated and both the plugin and browser still have references to the object thinking that it's still alive. That's why the crash is sometimes in the plugin when it tries to use the np object, and sometimes in the browser. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/post_bug.cgi
