I would like to add that if I simply select the text but do not press CTRL-C (nor do I select the "copy" menu option), the text *does* get copied to the (alternate, select-only) clipboard but the tab does not crash.

So the CTRL-C itself seems to be what's triggering the crash.

Furthermore, this is 100% reliable since it started happening a few Chrome versions ago.

Unable to reproduce the issue on Debian , Mac 10.13.3 & windows 7 using chrome reported version-65.0.3325.162 & latest stable-	65.0.3325.181 as per C#0.

Able to copy text (selected "Copy" from right-click context menu) , tried with Ctrl+C also successfully & able to paste it in any other doc without any crash.

Could you please upgrade chrome to latest stable & check the issue. If still issue persists, please provide us the crash id from chrome://crashes

Thanks..!

Do you have a crash ID? We had a bug in this area but it should have been fixed.

Comment 6 by wize...@wizy.org, Mar 22 2018

I don't have a crash ID because Chromium apparently doesn't support that.

It seems that this issue might be specific to NixOS 17.09 (multiple people besides me have reported it), so perhaps you can ignore this bug report.

Status: WontFix (was: Unconfirmed)
it appears this was fixed on nixos by switching build to gcc7:
