 From this part of the backtrace I can see you are using a version of 
Gwenview which uses libexif to read JPEG meta information. Since version 
1.4.1, Gwenview uses Exiv2, which is known to be more robust. I suggest 
you try to install an updated version (1.4.1 or 1.4.2), it's highly 
probable this will fix your problem.

Could you send me an example of "crashing jpeg" to my personal email? I 
keep a collection of crashing files to do some tests.
