Segfault in production Android app - facebook::hermes::debugger::EventObserver::breakpointResolved

[MFazio23]

Description

We have a massive (15K) amount of crashes in our production React Native Android app which are shown to end in the breakpointResolved function inside Hermes.

This crash occurs ~90% of the time on Motorola devices, though we've seen it a slight bit on other devices like Samsungs and Pixels.

It is also happening all over our app without a clear pattern as to something in particular causing it.

Our dev team has been unable to reproduce this issue on our side, both with dev and prod builds, but we are continually attempting to find some way to have it happen consistently.

We are also working to upgrade our version of React Native to the latest version, but are hoping someone may have an idea here while that is in progress.

Steps to reproduce

This is only occurring in our production app and we are unable to reproduce it on our side, either with a dev or a prod build.

We have a massive (15K) amount of crashes in our production React Native Android app which are shown to end in the breakpointResolved function inside Hermes.

In general, in production apps, the Hermes Debugger is not enabled, so it's surprising to see it in your stacktrace.

I'm passing over this to the Hermes team for further investigation
