Confirming both that the issue exists and that the patch does the trick.
Applying this patch file:

https://github.com/mate-
desktop/caja/commit/6ece67ffa2b3c90f4c0ae69147b62ea255da3636.patch

as-is into the 1.18.1-0ubuntu2 source code (although offset is -4 rows)
works - I just opened the Downloads folder from Firefox.

Right, I don't know if this is correct, but I'm going to switch the
package affected to caja as it is the package that needs the patch, not
Firefox... Please correct my actions when necessary.

Title:
  Ubuntu MATE 17.04 crashes when opening D/L folder from Firefox

Status in caja package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Expected:

  Using Firefox 52.02, when File download finishes, opening "Display the
  progress of ongoing Downloads" (arrow on Right of address bar), then
  selecting "Open Containing Folder" icon from Firefox opens Downloads
  folder on system.

  What happens:

  Using Firefox 52.02, when File download finishes, opening "Display the
  progress of ongoing Downloads" (arrow on Right of address bar), then
  selecting "Open Containing Folder" icon from Firefox, causes system to
  hang/crash for period of 2 minutes; (opening menu's, shutdown button,
  opening any program at all, etc). Sometimes only way to get response
  from system is shutdown/restart.

  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start Ubuntu MATE 17.04.
  2. Run Firefox.
  3. Browse to any site.
  4. Download a file from site.
  5. Wait until Download arrow indicator next to address bar arrow on Firefox 
indicates a completed download.
  6.Click on arrow next to/on right address bar "Display the progress of 
ongoing Downloads".
  7. Click on icon "Open Containing Folder".
  8. Computer will then freeze/hang/crash for a period of at least 2 minutes.

  Additional notes:

  1.Computer is unresponsive at this time, menu's are unresponsive, run
  application [ALT+ F2] unresponsive, Tabs on Firefox Browser
  unresponsive, any other programs running unresponsive, unable to
  close/open any programs.

  1a. Note: This unresponsive period may last 2 minutes, or sometimes
  will only become responsive after killing Firefox process.

  2.The date/time applet will still update however. Other applets
  unresponsive.

  3. Terminal can be run [ALT+ CNRL+T].

  4. Terminal will allow "pidof" to be run, to find PID of Firefox.

  5. Firefox can be then "killed" by "kill [pid] xxx" via terminal.
  Computer becomes responsive again.

  6. Running Ubuntu Mate 17.04 from a bootable USB results in the same
  thing/problem happening.

  7.Same problem happens with Firefox Version 51.

  8. Downgrade to 16.10 on same machine, no problem occurs.

  9. No crash error report in "about:crashes" in Firefox built in
  diagnostics.

  
  Computer Specs:

  X220 Lenevo/i5/16GB RAM/250GB SSD

  Thank-you.

  (Please let me know if I have done any of this incorrectly or need any
  other information. First Bug report!)
