Bug 247387 – REGRESSION(macOS Ventura): OpenAudible, Eclipse and other Java applications crash when using WebKit

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: JavaScriptCore

VM Crash Log

Java GUI applications that use webkit are now failing for users that have upgraded to Ventura running on Intel. (M1/Rosetta users not affected.) 

This will break a lot of apps that embed a browser into a java based desktop app, as google.com's main page can't be rendered without crashing.

Two github issues are tracking this (with full crash logs and a discussion):

https://github.com/openaudible/openaudible/issues/1050
https://github.com/eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.swt/issues/452

This is an odd problem, as running from command line (using "java -jar application.jar) does not crash, but running using the Eclipse launcher, or the very common Instal4J "JavaApplicationStub" launcher will crash.

One can reproduce this by downloading OpenAudible for Intel on Intel machine running Mac OS 13 (Ventura) and select menu "Controls: Connect to Audible"

Eclipse is also having this issue, but not positive full steps to open the eclipse web browser.

Would be nice to be able to run this against a debug version of JavaScriptCore and drop into a debugger to see what is going on.. Our apps have worked up until the first reports on Ventura beta. 

I'm seeing SIGSEGV, SIGNAL, Code 5 Trace/BPT and SIGABRT errors, all about 4 recursion levels into llint_entry. 

Native frames: (J=compiled Java code, A=aot compiled Java code, j=interpreted, Vv=VM code, C=native code)

Attached is a typical crash log.

Any assistance appreciated!

I can reproduce as described. Got different looking crashes a couple rimes, but they didn't seem any more helpful.

Hitting the same kind of crash under lldb, so it doesn't look like JVM signal handler mangles the report too much.

If it helps I can build a small Mac intel app that just launches a browser that can be used for testing. Maybe quit with a result 0 if the page loads correctly.

Yes, please.  That would be immensely helpful.

I posted code and binary to reproduce this bug.

https://github.com/openaudible/swt_browser_test

and

https://github.com/openaudible/swt_browser_test/releases/latest


There is an unsigned .dmg with an unsigned .app.

Instructions for running from terminal are included.... but essentially open the dmg and run:

/Volumes/SWTBrowserTest/SWTBrowserTest.app/Contents/MacOS/JavaApplicationStub

Which should quickly bring up the Mac crash dialog. 

Source code and installer files are all included.

Hopefully you can figure it out..

[Yijia Huang]

Thanks. That would be really helpful.

Hi Jijia,

I just updated the test executable so it is signed. 

https://github.com/openaudible/swt_browser_test/releases

Should work on M1 Ventura and fail on Intel Ventura. 

Let me know if you have any questions and keep us posted. I'm seeing a few other developers impacted by this.

[Lakshmi P Shanmugam]

Hi team, can you please provide any updates for this issue or suggest possible workarounds in the application code? 
It currently seems to affect all Eclipse/SWT based products using the Webkit browser and running on macOS Ventura (Intel).

[Yijia Huang]

Hi developers,

Sorry for late rely. In recent weeks, all the team members are tight in various deadlines and schedules. The crash is due to the `BAD_ADDRESS_ACCESS` of one register with null value. I am currently working on this one and trying to figure out why is null. Hopefully, we can fix this one by the end of this week.

Thanks Yijia for the quick response, looking forward to the fix!

@Yijia, any updates on the issue?

Hi @Lakshmi, we are still working on this. It seems to be more complicated than we thought, and we need more time to figure it out.

[Pierre_T]

Hello @Yijia, 
Do you have any news about the issue?

Hi @Yijia, more and more Eclipse users are affected by this as they upgrade to macOS 13. It basically makes Eclipse unusable on macOS 13 on Intel Macs. 
Can you please suggest any interim workarounds that can be used in the client code until it's fixed in Webkit? I believe disabling javascript avoids the crash, but JS support is required in many applications and can't be used as a workaround.

[Paul Gardner]

Not just Eclipse, the BiglyBT application also becomes unusable...

Maybe we can help debug. I'm a little rusty... so bare with me.

Where is the source code that crashes? Line number? Is the code open source? 

If there is a null register dereference, what does that register contain when it isn't null and working (say, on an M1 or earlier build)? (For instance, is it a string, object pointer, etc? Can a dummy variable be used (empty string, for instance.))

Where is the Webkit object code on the Mac? Which file contains the crash?  

Is it possible to build from source and replace the existing code?

Can the code be built with debug symbols and breakpoints be set?

Can debugging code be added to the code in question? (if (x==null) log.error.

If you set a debugger break BAD_ADDRESS_ACCESS, is there a stacktrace that helps explain what that register is? 

Is there source code for the object code that crashes? Line of code where it crashes? 

Really would be best to update the source to allow a breakpoint where the trouble is and stop the program before it happens, while simultaneously doing the same breakpoints on a working version. 

If it were me, I'd start with some of the above..

[Yusuke Suzuki]

So far, Justin and Yijia found that this crash does not happen when Oracle's JDK is used.
We are wondering whether this issue would be related to OpenJDK, but anyway, using the latest Oracle's JDK is a workaround.

[Yusuke Suzuki]

OK, found a bug.

[Yusuke Suzuki]

[Yusuke Suzuki]

Ah, yeah, the root cause was found, but looks like this is very specific to this application.
Is this application has very special entitlement? It seems that memory mapping pattern is vastly different from the other normal process (e.g. WebContent process), and it is contradicting with the WebKit's assumption.

[Yusuke Suzuki]

Hi! [e-mail]

It looks like the application binary is specifying DYLD configuration, which specifically reduces the PAGEZERO from 4GB (default) to 64KB. This changes what address mmap returns, and gets invariant of JavaScriptCore broken. (mmap returns address larger than 4GB).

You can workaround the issue by changing PAGEZERO DYLD flag to default 4GB.

I reproduced this on macOS Monterey, so removing Ventura from the title.

[Yusuke Suzuki]

Ah, probably Ventura related change.

[Yusuke Suzuki]

Yup, now the following can be explained,

> This is an odd problem, as running from command line (using "java -jar application.jar) does not crash, but running using the Eclipse launcher, or the very common Instal4J "JavaApplicationStub" launcher will crash.

JavaApplicationStub has DYLD loader command using 64KB for PAGEZERO, but java command does not have that.

Yay! Thanks a lot for fixing this, @Yusuke!

When will the fix be available for users? How do we get the fixed Webkit version on macOS 13?

Hello!

Apple does not mention to the future release plan in general (to avoid confusion).
But since there is very easy workaround https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=247387#c22, you can just try this workaround and address the issue right now :)

[Paul Gardner]

Not "very easy" when you have 1000s of users out there with an existing JavaApplicationStub gradually upgrading to Ventura!

The workaround suggested was "changing PAGEZERO DYLD flag to default 4GB". Does it refer to the linker flag -pagezero_size <size> or a different flag?

The linker flag cannot be seen as workaround because it involves building/linking the application and wouldn't fix the problem for the existing users of the application.

It'll be very helpful to the Eclipse and Java community if the Webkit fix can be made available to the users at the earliest as it's a blocker to moving to macOS Ventura.

I talked to EJ Technologies/Install4J who wrote the JavaApplicationStub. 

"The lower pagezero size is unfortunately required for the OpenJ9 JVM so we cannot generally change that."

They have a version of JavaApplicationStub that uses the default page size available by asking support. The changes requires Install4j 10 and the updated JavaApplicationStub can be placed in install4j10/resource/macos.

Thanks everyone for the assistance getting this identified.

Same case with Eclipse launcher, lower pagezero size is required to support OpenJ9.

Hello,

Do you have any news about the availability of this fix ?

[Alexey Proskuryakov]

Can you test with the latest macOS beta (13.2, build 22D49)?

[Ajay Lamba]

Ok, will try to install the Beta build but it will take some time.

[Ajay Lamba]

Ventura 13.2 is GA now. I tried running my application on Ventura 13.2 and it is working fine. No crash occurred.

So the issue is fixed by Apple in Ventura 13.2 release.
