For some time now Xcode has been downloading crash reports from users of my app about crashes related to arrays. One of them looks like this:
...
Code Type: ARM-64
Parent Process: launchd [1]
User ID: 501

1 MyApp 0x00000001045011e4 MyViewController.validateToolbarButtons() + 648 (MyViewController.swift:742)
...
The relevant code looks like this:
class MyViewController {
func validateToolbarButtons() {
let indexes = tableView.clickedRow == -1 || tableView.selectedRowIndexes.contains(tableView.clickedRow) ? tableView.selectedRowIndexes : IndexSet(integer: tableView.clickedRow)
let items = indexes.map({ myArray[$0] })
...
}
}
The second crash looks like this:
...

3 MyApp 0x000000010192f66e MyViewController.controlTextDidChange(_:) + 190 (MyViewController.swift:166)
...
And the relevant code looks like this:
class MyObject {
var myProperty: [MyObject] {
get {
...
}
set {
let items = newValue.map({ $0.id })
...
}
}
}
What could cause such crashes? Could they be caused by anything other than concurrent access from multiple threads (which I'm quite sure is not the case here, as I only access these arrays from the main thread)?

We are getting a crash _dispatch_assert_queue_fail when the cancellationHandler on NSProgress is called.
We do not see this with iOS 17.x, only on iOS 18. We are building in Swift 6 language mode and do not have any compiler warnings.
We have a type whose init looks something like this:
init(
request: URLRequest,
destinationURL: URL,
session: URLSession
) {
progress = Progress()
progress.kind = .file
progress.fileOperationKind = .downloading
progress.fileURL = destinationURL
progress.pausingHandler = { [weak self] in
self?.setIsPaused(true)
}
progress.resumingHandler = { [weak self] in
self?.setIsPaused(false)
}
progress.cancellationHandler = { [weak self] in
self?.cancel()
}
When the progress is cancelled, and the cancellation handler is invoked. We get the crash. The crash is not reproducible 100% of the time, but it happens significantly often. Especially after cleaning and rebuilding and running our tests.

Any thoughts on why this is crashing and what we can do to work-around it? I have not been able to extract our code into a simple reproducible case yet. And I mostly see it when running our code in a testing environment (XCTest). Although I have been able to reproduce it running an app a few times, it's just less common.
