Big Sur panic when connect/disconnect usb-c dock

Big Sur panic when connect/disconnect usb-c dock (tested with many usb–c docks including baseus, ugreen, non apple – not reproduced with apple multiport adapter).

Problem persist! I have many panics every day!

One more here.. It is frustrating//

Stop being such a sneaky lying *** and maybe you might be able to resolve some of your sneaky USB router issues

I've been facing the same issue for months now, it's been extremely annoying. My MBP16" 2019 crashes almost every day once or twice. A $2000+ dollars laptop that can work with a monitor is completely unacceptable.

Today I was working at the office and I got a new kernel panic while reconnecting my USB-C dock:

This sounds more serious though :(

Same issue with my 13' MBP 2020 i7 running Big Sur 11.5 and the CalDigit USB-C dock (Thunderbolt 3 mini Dock):

Anyone would have any idea to solve this?

Experiencing the same issue daily for months with my 2019 i9 MBP 16" + Dell U2719H connected via display port. Annoying. Nothing solved the problem to me yet.

panic(cpu 6 caller 0xffffff8017e9fc36): [kext.kalloc.2048]: element modified after free (off:1672, val:0xfffffffe00000000, sz:2048, ptr:0xffffff939025d000, prot:zero)

Just to Chime in:

  • Brand spanking new 16" Macbook,
  • Big Sur 11.5.1
  • Lenovo dock ldc-g2 connected over USB-C, monitor on DisplayPort
  • Multiple hard crashes a day with this same kernel panic error, mostly when removing or reconnecting the dock, maybe 5-10s after it.

I am going to swap this out for an HDMI cable this weekend and report back on results.

Same issue here. Consistent crash when I connect to the dock.

MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019) + Belkin Thunderbolt 3 Pro Dock + Dell U3818DW

Same problem here since the Big Sur Update. I submitted every panic to Apple.

I attached the last one...

Same here since i got my 16" MacBook Pro (2019) AMD Radeon 5300M 18 Month ago. Happens every time i plug/unplug my usb-c docking station (HP G5). MacOS Big Sur 11.5.2.

I have been encountering this issue for like 3 months already. It's good to see a dedicated thread for this but too bad it's still an issue and we're already in page 7. I am using my 2019 Macbook Pro 16" at Big Sur 11.5

Been having this issue at work for about 3 months now. It had gotten worse and worse. Every update that comes out i install instantly but it only makes the crashed happen more frequent. I'm really regetting updating to Big Sur.

The following crash will happen about 2 times a day. It's always when i connect one of my external monitors usb-c to display.

Happens to me as well as described by @dbdotconf. I use 2 monitors with 16'' 2021 Big Sur 11.5.1. The same flow of actions, almost every day when I plug in monitors via 2 TB3, I hear fans and then it crashes and reboots. Also send report every time. This is very annoying. Such amount of money was paid not for such an experience with Mac which is supposed to be ideal.

And yes my crash starts with "[kext.kalloc.2048]: element modified after free" and cpu panic as well.

cpu...panic...[kext.kalloc.2048]: element modified after free....

2021 16'' Big Sur 11.5.1, still happens every day when I start my work in the morning and connect 2 monitors via TB3.

Jeeezzzz...

Big Sur panic when connect/disconnect usb-c dock
