Safari (12.1) Webdriver hard crash on Selenium cli

Question

When I'm running my selenium scripts, I will get a hard crash when I run the Safari web browser if I click certain links.

For most click actions the Safari Webdriver is fine, but if I preform a webElement.click() or webElement.actions.clickAndHold([some web element]).perform() The driver will crash.

This only happens for web elements that are footer jump links (like, when a user clicks on the link the page will scroll down to the footer).

Also, this only happens in Safari. Chrome, Firefox, etc. are all fine.

Has anyone run into something like this, and if so are there work arounds (like maybe some other way to click a web element)?

This started with the newly released Safari 12.1.1 browser (it was working fine before)

I think this is the section of the Javascript on the webpage that is causing the crash:

        $.each(t, function(n, t) {
            var i = $(t)
              , r = p(i);
            r && r.not("[tabindex],input,textarea").attr("tabindex", -1);
            r && (i.data("anchor") ? console.warn("%c attr [data-anchor] is deprecated; use [href] or [data-jump-target] instead", "background: #222; color: #7fda55; font-size: 14px; padding: 4px", i[0]) : i.is(".jumpLink, .anchor-link, .superscript-link") && console.warn('%c classes .jumpLink, .anchor-link, .superscript-link for anchors are deprecated; use <a href="#value"> or <div data-jump-target="value"> instead', "background: #222; color: #7fda55; font-size: 12px; padding: 2px", i[0]))
        });

And this is the error Safari is throwing:

(there's more to the error message, this is only the top half).

Answer 1

I'm seeing the same crash when using the Action class to perform a shift-click. I broke the chained action into its separate parts and for me, it crashes at Action.KeyDown(elem, Keys.Shift).Perform()

I've been messing with this off and on for two days with no real progress.
