Created attachment 76047 [details] Repro I could not find an open bug for this issue, even though it has been around for a while. The following simple repro can be used to check for recursion issues in various tags: <body> <script> var asTags = ['a', 'altGlyph', 'altGlyphDef', 'altGlyphItem', 'animate', 'animateColor', 'animateMotion', 'animateTransform', 'circle', 'clipPath', 'color-profile', 'cursor', 'definition-src', 'defs', 'desc', 'ellipse', 'feBlend', 'feColorMatrix', 'feComponentTransfer', 'feComposite', 'feConvolveMatrix', 'feDiffuseLighting', 'feDisplacementMap', 'feDistantLight', 'feFlood', 'feFuncA', 'feFuncB', 'feFuncG', 'feFuncR', 'feGaussianBlur', 'feImage', 'feMerge', 'feMergeNode', 'feMorphology', 'feOffset', 'fePointLight', 'feSpecularLighting', 'feSpotLight', 'feTile', 'feTurbulence', 'filter', 'font', 'font-face', 'font-face-format', 'font-face-name', 'font-face-src', 'font-face-uri', 'foreignObject', 'g', 'glyph', 'glyphRef', 'hkern', 'image', 'line', 'linearGradient', 'marker', 'mask', 'metadata', 'missing-glyph', 'mpath', 'path', 'pattern', 'polygon', 'polyline', 'radialGradient', 'rect', 'script', 'set', 'stop', 'style', 'svg', 'switch', 'symbol', 'text', 'textPath', 'title', 'tref', 'tspan', 'use', 'view', 'vkern']; setInterval(function() { if (confirm('Would you like to test "' + asTags[0] + '"...?')) { document.open(); document.write('<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">' + new Array(20000).join('<' + asTags[0] + '>')); document.close(); } asTags.shift(); }, 1); </script> Here's a list of the crashes I've seen so far: chrome.dll!WebCore::ContainerNode::willRemove RecursionSOV (d2c46b73f6877654a2020cfd44fc561d) chrome.dll!WebCore::RenderSVGHiddenContainer::layout+1 RecursionSOV (28afd91631a23d8ec42d3e81959a0578) My fuzzers also found this one but I cannot reproduce it manually: chrome.dll!WebCore::RenderSVGModelObject::computeRectForRepaint+1 RecursionSOV (d6b83f31f12c0154765b5a9962f9b8d0)

Running the test case passes with no crashes. From running it I noticed that processing some of the tags are pretty slow like <svg> for example. But I think these tags should not occur that many in an svg. The slowness should happen because of constructing new heavy objects and because of updating the DOM tree extensively for these tags. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 63290 ***
