Línea de trabajo

Start in firebase_core/lib/src/firebase.dart, where demoProjectId builds the FirebaseOptions with the hardcoded apiKey '12345'. Reproduce with the linked repro project on an iOS simulator to see the SIGABRT from FIRInstallations validateAPIKey. Pull request #18792 already targets this, so check it before starting. Done means the demo options pass validation on Apple platforms and the repro app launches without crashing.

Descripción

Needs Attention platform: ios plugin: core reproduced type: bug type: crash
Description

This is a follow-up to locked issue #17788. I have created a clean, minimal reproduction project with no remote Firebase project, no GoogleService-Info.plist, and no google-services.json:
👉 Reproduction Repository: https://github.com/akurnaz/flutterfire_repro

The issue is that Firebase.initializeApp(demoProjectId: '...') crashes natively on iOS (EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT) / Abort trap: 6) as soon as any package that depends on FirebaseInstallations (e.g., firebase_crashlytics, firebase_auth, or firebase_messaging) is present.

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Clone the reproduction repo: git clone https://github.com/akurnaz/flutterfire_repro.git
  2. Run on an iOS Simulator: flutter run
  3. The application crashes immediately on startup.

Alternatively, in any fresh Flutter app:

  • Add firebase_core: ^4.15.0 and firebase_crashlytics: ^5.4.0 (which pulls in FirebaseInstallations).
  • Call await Firebase.initializeApp(demoProjectId: 'demo-template'); in main().

Root Cause
  1. In firebase_core/lib/src/firebase.dart, demoProjectId sets a hardcoded dummy API key:
resolvedOptions = FirebaseOptions(
  apiKey: '12345',
  appId: '1:1:$platformString:1',
  messagingSenderId: '',
  projectId: demoProjectId,
);
  1. In the iOS native SDK (firebase-ios-sdk), FIRInstallations.m strictly validates that the API key is 39 characters and begins with A:
+ (void)validateAPIKey:(nullable NSString *)APIKey {
  if (APIKey.length != kExpectedAPIKeyLength) { // kExpectedAPIKeyLength = 39
    [validationIssues addObject:@"API Key length must be 39 characters"];
  }

  if (![[APIKey substringToIndex:1] isEqualToString:@"A"]) {
    [validationIssues addObject:@"API Key must start with `A`"];
  }
  
  if (validationIssues.count > 0) {
    [NSException raise:kFirebaseInstallationsErrorDomain format:...];
  }
}
  1. Because '12345' fails this validation, an uncaught NSException is thrown, resulting in an uncatchable SIGABRT crash on iOS.
Suggested Fix

In firebase_core/lib/src/firebase.dart, format the dummy apiKey to be a 39-character string starting with A on Apple platforms:

apiKey: (defaultTargetPlatform == TargetPlatform.iOS || defaultTargetPlatform == TargetPlatform.macOS)
    ? 'AIzaSy0000000000000000000000000000000'
    : '12345',
