What is the expected behavior?
Shouldn't crash..

What went wrong?
App crashes and gets closed

Did this work before? N/A 

Does this work in other browsers? N/A

Chrome version: 61.0.3163.100  Channel: stable

This happens (i guess) when user presses an ad of admob

@amitshadadidev: Thanks for the report!!

Could you please upgrade your Chrome to the latest version #62.0.3202.84 and check if you still face the Crash, If so provide the OS and details of your device and a sample Crash I'd from chrome://crashes? that would help us in further triaging of the issue.

Thanks!! 

Hi, it happens to my app's users mainly with samsung devices (but not only) , android 7, not sure about their chrome version, this exception happens alot and have started at about 12-11-17 (dd-MM-yy).
@amitshadadi -- Could you please provide the sample URL where this issue can be reproduced. Also, please let us know the device model (if device specific) where this issue is observed. This would help us in further triaging the issue.

Thanks in advance.
Hi, im sorry but i dont have the url for you, as i wrote, it happens when the user interacts with admob's ad (i dont have any webview in my app other then admob that uses webview), so i cant provide the admob url, us for the device, mainly it happens on samsung devices that supports android 7 (its a big list on my screen)  one of them will be galaxy s7 edge, though it happens on all devices that supports android 7, i guess samsung is the most popular, i hope it helps you somehow.

@amitshadadi -- Could you please provide the latest Crash ID by navigating to chrome://crashes, which gets generated when Chrome gets crashed. This would help us in triaging the issue further.

Thanks in advance.
Given that this is a WebView crash, I don't think it shows up in chrome://crashes (not in Chrome anyway).

This looks similar to b/69347400

amitshadadi@, do you have any idea how often this occurs? (i.e. if we use your app with one of the affected device models, would it reproduce quickly?)
Hi, the best i can do know is show you my Fabric's Crashlytics reports - Attached, i'm not sure how quickly you are going to reproduce it.
