Save image crashes Firefox iOS in version 153.0

Pressing and holding on an image then selecting “save image” causes Firefox to crash on iOS. I checked the permissions to photos in iOS settings. I also tried to uninstall Firefox then reinstalled, same issue. I tried clearing the cache in Firefox settings

There is an influx of crashes that seem to come from context menu preview render, which sounds pretty close to this.

1. Is that happening only on certain sites, or you can't do that on any image, incl. e.g. wikipedia, the browser logo here on this page next to your summary etc.?

2. To work around it, try going into Settings to disable Link Previews which should just render the menu, and not the separate image, in case that helps to avoid crashing.

This is being investigated in:

Thanks for the report!

This is fixed in v153.2 rolling out next Monday.
