Description
Helium crashes randomly on Fedora 43.
How to Reproduce?

- After some time, the application crashes unexpectedly
Actual behavior
- Random crashes during normal usage
- System logs show helium_crashpad_handler crashing with Signal: 7 (BUS)
- Crash appears unrelated to specific websites or actions
Expected behavior
Helium should run without crashing under normal usage, similar to other Chromium-based browsers.
