I've had a similar issue with multiple versions of libreoffice-writer
for at least 2 years.  Currently, I am on Xubuntu 18.04.3.up-to-date;
libreoffice-writer 1:6.0.7-0ubuntu0.18.04.9.

My process:
* I use xfce4-screenshooter (1.8.2-2, currently) to copy a portion of a chrome 
screen from a Coursera.org lecture to the Xfce clipboard.  
* Then, I attempt to paste it into my ODT document.  

These screenshot images are PNG when I save them first to the file
system and then insert them into the document - cumbersome but always
reliable.

If the clipboard contains a small/medium image, the paste works fine.

Beyond a certain size threshold (not large), the paste puts libreoffice-
writer into a very long (closed?) loop.

This does not happen on my spouse's Mac!  (-:  Sorry but I have no
access at the moment to other distros/desktops for additional testing.
Yes, I already tried a "latest" copy of libreoffice from their site with
the same results.  So, I am of the opinion that this is some sort of
interface issue with Xfce, Gnome, or Gnu libraries.

If someone would like me to be a guinea pig, please let me know.
