Segmentation fault on https://www.mba.org.uk/

As per the title, really. If I visit https://www.mba.org.uk/ in my Pale Moon 33.9.0 64-bit GTK3 on Linux it throws a segmentation fault. It has just happened three times in a row. There is no other output/error on the terminal from which pale moon was started.

I have not been to this site before so cannot say whether this behaviour happened in older versions.

Confirmed crashing in a fresh profile of 33.9.0 for Windows 11 x64. I can't reproduce the crash in 33.8.2, so it's most likely caused by one of the changes this update. I've uploaded a minidump named palemoon-crash_20250924165920.7z to the FTP.

Thanks for the crash dump.
Seems there's an error in the CSS color-mix implementation causing a recursive loop and stack exhaustion that this page happens to hit.
