This happens because of a NULL deref. My patch checks for NULL and returns to avoid the NULL deref. [ Test Plan ] 1. Install python3-nautilus 2. Copy test.py to ~/.local/share/nautilus-python/extensions/ (https://gitlab.gnome.org/-/project/1/uploads/4becd588cc4db8294e9154813e814224/test.py) 3. create an empty folder and open a terminal and run mkdir test_{1..500} to create a lot of empty folders in your new directory 4. kill nautilus with nautilus -q 5. restart nautilus with nautilus --no-desktop 6. navigate to your folder 7. immediately go back to the parent folder, i.e. press alt+arrow-key-up 8. repeat folder navigation multiple times Nautilus should not crash. [ Where problems could occur ] Since the extension functions return now prematurely, some of the code paths are no longer being executed, i.e. a g_object_unref or finish_info_provider. This might lead to a memory leak or undefined extension behavior. Instead of crashing nautilus will output an error message. This fix is being included in the 46.4 SRU: bug 2108849 [ Other Info ] Upstream MR: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/merge_requests/1662 Upstream issue: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/3505 Since nautilus-python is not preinstalled and an extension which calls the async method is required, this crash and this patch does not affect a Ubuntu standard installation and therefore most of the Ubuntu users. Nonetheless I think this crash especially affects developers who use Ubuntu and a tool like turtle (https://gitlab.gnome.org/philippun1/turtle), which uses the nautilus python extension to calculate git status emblems.
