Description manu 2023-04-18 06:38:53 PDT 
Submitting a form with name "host" causes Safari 16.4 to crash.
Changing the name to anything else avoids the problem.

Reproduce with this markup:

<form name="host" method="GET">
<input type="submit" value="Submit this form. It may break your Safari browser.">
</form>

Thank you for the report. I can reproduce with Safari 16.5 beta on macOS, and this appears to be a Safari issue, not a WebKit one. Moving it over for Apple engineers working on Safari to investigate.
