Consistently happens on AIR 32 (tried also 27 and 31), iOS 12 and 8.
A video of this happening on both iOS8 and iOS12: airiosbug.mp4 - Google Drive
Just create a NetConnection and a NetStream.
If class has a variable referncing the NetStream, if app is brought to background and then to foreground, it crashes immediately.
If NetStrean is not referenced, app doesn't crash.
Crash log infact reports a null pointer.
Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)
Exception Subtype: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at 0x0000000000000000
Note that app works perfectly and for a long time if not brought to background and back to foreground again. Crashes only when brought back to foreground.

Here is the only code:
Commenting: "_ns = ns;" application does not crash.
package { import flash.display.MovieClip; import flash.net.NetConnection; import flash.net.NetStream; import flash.text.TextField; /** * ... * @author Pippo Gregoretti */ public class MainAppDebug extends MovieClip { private var _tf:TextField; private var _ns:NetStream; public function MainAppDebug() { super(); trace("Debugging AIR application."); //(_debugConsole as DebugConsole).show(); _tf = new TextField(); _tf.border = true; _tf.width = stage.stageWidth; _tf.height = stage.stageHeight; _tf.multiline = true; addChild(_tf); addText("Debugging AIR Application"); addText("Creating NetStreams..."); var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection(); nc.connect(null); var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc); /* THIS IS THE CULPRIT. COMMENT "_ns = ns" AND APP WILL NOT CRASH */ _ns = ns; } private function addText(t:String):void { _tf.appendText(t + "\n"); } } }
