Daily kernal panics

I'm getting daily crashes at this point. Many times it seems to be happening when watching a youtube video on chrome. Other times, i'll be coming back to my macbook and find that it's just turned off because of a crash. I just had my screen and battery replaced, the issues were present before this event, as well as after.

What will happen when watching a video:

video stops playing, and the youtube buffering indicator shows (gray circular animation)

mouse is able to move, but cannot click on anything

mouse turns into a beachball

computer crashed about 1 minute later

Things I've done:

Reset SMC

Reset PRAM

Repaired partitions from diagnostic boot

Attached are the 2 most recent kernal panics:

Kernal panic #1

Kernal panic #2

Thanks.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

Any of these might have caused the panic:

com.crowdstrike.sensor	115.01
org.virtualbox.kext.VBoxDrv	6.1.6
com.intel.kext.intelhaxm	7.5.1

I think VB has version 6.2 out.

I've seen intelHAXM cause panics, as reported here.

No idea what crowdstrike is.

Uninstall them following the developer's instructions or use their uninstaller app.

VB has an uninstaller script on the install dmg.

If the panics stop after uninstalling all of them, you can try installing one at a time to see if that one caused the panic.

I suppose you could uninstall one at a time, too.

If you get them all uninstalled, and it still panics, you likely have a hardware problem. There isn't anything in the panic log that can identify which piece of hardware, though, so you'll have to take it to an Apple Store or Authorized Repair center to have it evaluated.

Crashed after updates. Here's the Crash Report:

Kernal panic #3

How is it not this line?

last unloaded kext at 96424893835298: >usb.!UHostPacketFilter	1.0 (addr 0xffffff7f8c7a4000, size 24576)

It's the same on all three reports.

I'll begin uninstalling those services one by one. Will update.

Thanks. I've updated VirtualBox and IntelHAXM. I'll update in a few days to see where we're at.

An Apple kernel extension is not going to cause a kernel panic. It could, but the odds of it being bad are about a one in a bazillion.

It would more than likely something connected via USB.

Looks like

com.crowdstrike.sensor

was the culprit.

There was an update available, but i removed it all together.
