There is a potential crash in the cancel path of several UI dialogs in the product. The affected dialogs are ones which kick off a background thread to perform some long running actions (e.g. retrieving symbols list). There is a race that can sometimes be lost allowing the background thread object to be deleted while the thread is still destructing resources.

The following dialogs need to be fixed:

  • AddressDialogWithPreview
  • AddUserXrefDialog
  • FindDialog
  • TypeDialog
  • CreateStructDialog
  • PreferencesDialog
  • NewTabWidget
