Hello,
My previous Safari version (before updating my Mac to macOS Monterey 12.7.5) worked fine. Now I have Safari version 17.5 (17618.2.12.111.5, 17618) and it crashes about 3 to 4 times per day, e.g. when clicking on a link or closing a Safari window. The situation can't be reproduced.
I haven't changed anything else on my Mac, just installed both updates.
Is this a known bug?
Thanks.
iMac 27″, macOS 12.7
exactly the same issue. safari crashes when i close a tab either by alt+w or x icon mouse.
safari 17.5 (17618.2.12.111.5)
very unstable. sometimes it works even after closing 20+ tabs. sometimes crashes repeatedly.
it started after 12.7.5 update monterey.
Thank you! I didn't think it was going to work, but it seems to have cleared up the problem! Things load like lightning now - hope it lasts!
Have you tried launching Safari with the Shift key held down to clear out its caches, etc.
Agree, I tried too and it made no difference.
What do you mean with "reloaded"?

Safari 17.5 had been running smoothly for more than a week, then suddenly, another crash this morning. I'm not at all a computer expert, and not sure if anything below helps, but here's a tiny excerpt of the crash report. When I googled "Namespace SIGNAL, Code 11 Segmentation fault: 11" and "Apple", I go so many hits that I stopped. I did send a feedback to Apple about this. In the meantime, I'm using Chrome.
Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)
Exception Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at 0x0000000000000001
Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000001, 0x0000000000000001
Termination Reason: Namespace SIGNAL, Code 11 Segmentation fault: 11
Possible solution in another thread:
Safari is crashing consistently on specif… - Apple Community
"Have you tried this one yet?
Accessibility settings crash browsers - Apple Community
In short, delete ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SpeakSelection.plist .
(Note the tilde - which means home directory. You can get to the Library via the Finder Go menu with the option key pressed.)"

I was afraid of that! Waiting now for 17.7...
Thank you, I think this time I'll wait with updating, it could get worse...
Problem apparently solved!
After updating to Safari Version 17.5 (17618.2.12.111.5, 17618) it sometimes crashes
