Bug 233174 – Safari 15.1 regression: RTCRtpSender.replaceTrack with a disabled track crashes safari

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: CONFIGURATION CHANGED
• Component: WebRTC

[Arjun Vade]

Steps to reproduce:
1.Visit https://webrtc.github.io/samples/src/content/peerconnection/pc1/
2. Click on Start and Call buttons. Note that this app/demo exposes `pc1` on console which is a RTCPeerConnection object
3. Invoke the following code from the dev tools console:


black = ({ width = 640, height = 480 } = {}) => {
  const canvas = Object.assign(document.createElement('canvas'), { width, height });
  canvas.getContext('2d').fillRect(0, 0, width, height);
  const stream = canvas.captureStream();
  return Object.assign(stream.getVideoTracks()[0], { enabled: false }); // Note: changing enabled to true doesn't crash safari
};

dummyTrack = black();

pc1.getSenders()[0].replaceTrack(dummyTrack)

4. Notice that safari crashes.

Happens only on Safari 15.1, earlier versions were fine, so this is a regression. Happens both on BigSur and Monterey

Thanks for the report Arjun.
This should be fixed in latest iOS 15.2 beta.
