Safari App crashes when running with Safari extension intermittently

I have observed Safari App starts crashing when running with my safari extension.

Our Safari extension polls the host app every 60s. The extension receives and completes requests in

func beginRequest(with context: NSExtensionContext)

(we always call context.completeRequest(...)). The crash is intermittent: beginRequest itself does not throw.

Looking for guidance about likely causes. I am attaching the snippet from crash report.

Our engineering teams need to investigate this issue, as resolution may involve changes to Apple's software. Please file a bug report, include a small Xcode project and some directions that can be used to reproduce the problem, and post the Feedback number here once you do. If you post the Feedback number here I'll check the status next time I do a sweep of forums posts where I've suggested bug reports.

While investigating i found that in one of the exit point of beginRequest(with context: NSExtensionContext) i was not calling context.completeRequest(...))

Is there any reason why it crashed when it completeRequest was not added?
