Applications crash right after using the "Save As..." dialog

Since today's updates, some applications reproducably crash. For example, right-click on any link in firefox and choose "Save Link Location As...". After hitting the "Save" button, firefox will crash. Same thing when saving any text file with gedit (provided you use the save-as-dialog).

Not all applications are affected, though. Pinta and GIMP work fine, for instance.

Here's a dump of gedit's stack from journalctl:

systemd-coredump[3344]: Process 3317 (gedit) of user 1000 dumped core.

I updated the following packages today:

2016-05-20 07:38:08	graphene
2016-05-20 07:38:08	gtk-update-icon-cache
2016-05-20 07:38:09	gtk3
2016-05-20 07:38:11	python2-setuptools
2016-05-20 07:38:11	python-setuptools
2016-05-20 07:38:11	truecrypt

So it very likely has something to do with gtk.

(Edit:) Version numbers:

graphene 1.4.0-1
gtk3 3.20.5-1
gtk-update-icon-cache 3.20.5-1
python2-setuptools 1:21.1.0-1
python-setuptools 1:21.1.0-1
truecrypt 1:7.1a-4

Who else can reproduce the issue?

Yes, here. Firefox crashes whenever I try to save a download.

Re: Applications crash right after using the "Save As..." dialog

Yes, confirmed on my system too.

The segmentation faults of Firefox are being caused by the GTK3 3.20.5-1 upgrade. Reverting back to GTK3 3.20.4-2 is the makeshift solution.

GTK3 upgrades are never ending sources of buggy side effects.

Re: Applications crash right after using the "Save As..." dialog

maybe we should also downgrade gtk-update-icon-cache, in order to have the same version number ( 3.20.4-2 )

Re: Applications crash right after using the "Save As..." dialog

I was having similar issues with Firefox each time i'd right click 'save link as' i'd get ..  Error: Permission denied to access property "document"  Stack:   and Firefox would crash, i managed to fix it by going into prefrences and changing Privacy blocklist from basic blocking, to strict. I dont claim to know whats going on but my error seems related to XSS cross scripting.
Regards.

Re: Applications crash right after using the "Save As..." dialog

I also have the bug mentioned above in firefox, and downgrading to gtk3-3.20.3-4 fixes the issue. Evince seemed affected as well.
