After research, we found out that a crash occurs in QuickLook when a user tries to open a file with unknown mimeType - application/octet-stream. QuickLook convert that files to known type (for an example - application/pdf), but crashes for the first opening the file.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Can you please file a Feedback report? This over-release is difficult to investigate without repro steps. Thanks.

hi! we can't reproduce crash by ourself, but as I wrote above:

we found out that it occurs in QuickLook when a user tries to open a file with unknown mimeType - application/octet-stream. QuickLook convert that files to known type (for an example - application/pdf), but crashes for the first opening the file.

unfortunately, we don't have a file with unknown mimeType - application/octet-stream that crashes QuickLook when opened.

I'm attaching a crash report below as txt file.

We're experiencing the same crash. For us it happens inconsistently when users

Open a PDF preview
Background the app
Foreground the app

We've tried reproducing the crash using files that lead to a crash for users, but that didn't help.

We were able to temporarily fix this by dismissing the preview when the app enters background.
