My 15″ Macbook Pro with TouchBar had it’s first ever Kernel Panic since I bought it in 2016. It was waking from sleep when it froze/locked up completely before showing the kernel panic grey screen of death.
I’ve included the full logs from the Panic Report at the end of this post. If anybody can spot the cause or is having similar kernel panic issues please leave a comment below.
My system was up to date (at the time of writing) running macOS High Sierra version 10.13.3 (17D47).

Initial research mentions third party extensions can cause such issues; below shows the three third party extensions I have installed on this Macbook Pro, all of which were up to date at the time of the kernel panic.

I’ve run a full disk first aid check in “Disk Utility” which didn’t find any problems, I’ve also rebooted into single user mode (Command+S during boot) and run
1 | fsck -fy |
which also found no problems. It’s not happened again, so hopefully it was just a one off but I’ll update this post if it happens again or I find out the cause.

I never had this problem until High Sierra (MBP 15” c.2013, 8Gb RAM 500GbSSD). All software is up to date, and OSX up to date. Other problems unique to High Sierra have included overheating, not shutting down properly, and not waking up after sleep. With the latter, sometimes it recognises that a kernel panic has occurred and other times there’s no evidence of a kernel panic despite not being able to wake it up.
In the unix/linux world, and OSX sits on top of BSD, such crashes are unheard of. It’s scandalous that the richest corporation on earth has dragged such a venerable OS as unix/linux through the mud like this…
Have exactly the same problem with a MacPro 3,1 (with High Sierra Patched)… Nobody has the answer ?…… :-/
Had exactly the same problems. Turns out for me it where Chrome plugins in combination with High Sierra! Never had any problems with Sierra…
Turned out it happened before:

Maybe it’s even the hardware-accelerated-css which kills the GPU…
