CIFilter with CIQRCodeGenerator cause crash

I'm trying to generate QR code with following code :


DispatchQueue.main.async {
    let image = generateQRCode(from: qrCodeString)
}

func generateQRCode(from string: String?) -> UIImage? {

    if let data = string?.data(using: .utf8, allowLossyConversion: false) {
        if let filter = CIFilter(name: "CIQRCodeGenerator") {

            filter.setValue(data, forKey: "inputMessage")
            let transform = CGAffineTransform(scaleX: 5, y: 5)

            if let output = filter.outputImage?.transformed(by: transform) {
                return UIImage(ciImage: output)
            }
        }
    }
    return nil
}


This code works well for most devices/iOS version.

But firebase brings me a lot of device crashes: iPhone 11, XR. iOS 13.4.0

I tried several different encoding, I tried to do it on the main thread or in backgroud, but always without result.

Have you filed a bug report for this issue yet?

Do you know if this occurs on versions of iOS other than 13.4.0, and likewise other devices than iPhone 11 and iPhone XR?
I am facing same issue on iPhone11with OS version 13.6.1. Do you have any workaround for this?
