Samsung Multiwindow crash

Question

I have an app on the play store which supports Samsung's multiwindow mode, before the 4.4.2 version of the Samsung ROM, everything was fine, however, I noticed that the crash reports started to rise as the OS version is pushed to devices. I cannot find anything specific to this on Samsung's dev channel.

The crash is exclusive to 4.4.2.. Does anyone have an idea?

crash report follows

Version: 201
Android: 4.4.2
Manufacturer: samsung
Model: SM-N9005

thanks for your response. Now I am trying to find a solution for this, because it is happening in some Samsung S7 and S8 devices :S — moskis, Jan 04 '18 at 11:40
do share if you figure something out... very often when researching some issues I fall back on my unanswered questions... :) — Tancho, Jan 04 '18 at 17:13
