Keyboard crashes Firefox on MacOS?!

On my Macbook Air running MacOS 13.3.1 Firefox has a nasty habit of crashing immediately on certain keypresses.

When skipping through YouTube videos or choosing address bar suggestions, it crashes if I use the cursor keys.

I've followed all the published troubleshooting guidelines (updates, Troubleshooting Mode, etc.) and it lead me here.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

We're sorry to hear that Firefox is crashing. In order to assist you better, please follow the steps below to provide us crash IDs to help us learn more about your crash.

The crash report is several pages of data. We need the report numbers to see the whole report.

  1. Enter about:crashes in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A list of Submitted/Unsubmitted Crash Reports will appear, similar to the one shown below.
  2. Copy the 5 most recent Submitted Report IDs that start with bp- and then go back to your forum question and paste those IDs into the "Post a Reply" box.

Note: If a recent Report ID does not start with bp- click on it to submit the report.

(Please don't take a screenshot of your crashes, just copy and paste the IDs. The below image is just an example of what your Firefox screen should look like.)

That took longer than expected as apparently the cmd+c and cmd+v shortcuts also crash Firefox.
