chrome app crashes when a webview src is set to a url(only urls containing pdf files)

Reported by s...@onixnet.com, Oct 26 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/61.0.3163.100 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. load a webview with any src url
2. listen for newindow event and change the src to the target url (url of the pdf)
3. chrome crashes immediately after setting the src attribute

What is the expected behavior?
the view is supposed to be rendered normally but it still works fine for non pdf file urls.

What went wrong?
the pdf file size is 85kb, which is fine for in-memory cache. the abrupt behavior is only happening for the new window event and setting the src for the new webview element.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 61.0.3163.100  Channel: n/a
OS Version: OS X 10.11.6
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 27.0 r0

please provide your thoughts, thank you.

Can you please attach the server crash id from chrome://crashed and/or the Apple crash log? Thanks.

I am trying to perform chrome://crashes it doesn't have the latest crash
history in it. I've been trying to figure out where the app crash logs are
stored. Please advise.

Do you have "Automatically send usage statistics and crash reports to Google" enabled in the Chrome Settings under Privacy and security?

Thanks.

Thanks for the report.

Please attach a self-contained testcase if possible to help us debug.

Also, this is a Chrome App on OS X, right? Not Android?

This is a chrome app in single kiosk mode, currently debugging it locally
in chrome os to see what's happening with the memory when a webview is
created dynamically and appended a source url. I will look into developing
a test case to replicate the scenario but, i am sure this happens only for
this URL(2 page pdf generated with data ~100kb).
