Selecting by Expression aborts with a minidump

Original Redmine Issue: 14433
Affected QGIS version: 2.8.3
Redmine category:unknown

I am processing a series of shapefiles (from OS Open Map - Local in the UK) using an expression (see below) to pick out a rectangle of features, so that I can Copy/Paste to new vector layers and concentrate on a small area around my village. Some work fine, but others cause QGIS to abort during the selection with a minidump (2 attached).

I suspect it might be because there were no features in the shapefile within the rectangle, because all the ones I expected to have features within the rectangle worked OK.

Expression used: (xmin($geometry) < 537114.565 and xmax($geometry)>532059.373) and (ymin($geometry) <274187.017 and ymax($geometry) >269687.748)

minidump "could not be saved" so I will try the shapefile - 2 of 4 elements.

No segfault here (Linux, using 2.14). Can you please test with 2.14 and also confirm your O/S?

I am using Windows 10. I can confirm there is no problem with QGIS 2.14. Thanks.

Sorry - I should have tested with the latest version before logging the issue. I am using 2.8 for a reason relating to BoundlessGeo's OpenGeo plugin.
