Public bug reported: application-actions: use valid window list We were using the internal list of the application to iterate through the windows and closing them. Problem is that when closing one window, the list is modified, so next time accessing the list we are accessing the "old" list, which is invalid and makes nautilus crash.
To fix it make a copy of the list to preserve the consistency. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=755803 Fixing commit: https://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/commit/?h=gnome-3-14&id=45413c18167cddaefefc092b63ec75d8fadc6f50 ------------------------------------------------------------ window-menus: unref extension created action This looks not very harmful. But definitely is. Thing is, when using nautilus_action_from_menu_item it keeps a reference to the NautilusMenuItem from the extension. So that menu item will never be freed. Now, let's imagine nautilus-open-terminal have a ref to the file that the item points to, and only unref it when the item is destroyed. Now, sum that when a file is not unrefed completely from nautilus when unmounting the file, so it's mark as gone and cannot be used again. Now try to use it in this state. Nautilus crashes. This fix few crashes reported downstream on distros that uses this extension.
