Android firebase app invites SecurityException not

I have successfully implemented the Android firebase app invites functionality using this link and it is working fine for most of the devices.

But on marshmallow device (6.0.1) when I click on the sms contact, the system crashes with message "Unfortunately Google Play Services has Stopped.".

In log I get the following error:

I tried giving the permission but it is still not working. Any help would be appreciated.
