[Bug 1395794] [NEW] Chrominum Locks Up Ubuntu 14.04

 

Public bug reported:

Twice today, I had to shutdown my Ubuntu 14.04 improperly due to system
lock-up.

Each time the lockup happened, these are the exact steps I did:
1) Launch Chromium browser
2) Go to https://login.microsoftonline.com
3) type in an email address
4) Press tab (attempting to move cursor to password field)

At this point the entire system locked up.

The only recent package I recall installing (related to Chromium) was
the pepperflashplugin-nonfree. So, it may be a bug in that plugin that
is the culprit. I'm not sure, but I hope my report helps.
