io.flutter.1.ui (10): EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1, address=0xab).

Following the latest iOS update to version 17, I've encountered a peculiar issue while testing the app I'm developing in debug mode. My iPhone unexpectedly undergoes a full restart during the testing process. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to pinpoint the exact cause or capture any exceptions since the device restarts abruptly.

Upon closely examining the debugger, I stumbled upon this message in Xcode: "io.flutter.1.ui (10): EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1, address=0xab)."

Debugging your app shouldn’t be able to cause the device to restart.

I’ve seen issues like this before, and they usually point to a bug in iOS itself. For example, something in your app might be causing a kernel panic [1].

How easily can you reproduce this?

[1] Or a user space restart, which is a different issue but has similar symptoms.
