Depends what you feel confident tackling. An interesting but
challenging one to look at as a newcomer might be

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87951

because it provides you with an example .iso file you can loopback mount
to see the crash, and the same fixes were done for a similar bug so can
be seen in the git log to work from.

commit 410dd3cf4c9b36f27ed4542ee18b1af5e68645a4

It's predictable, it's repeatable and it can be done crashing a virtual
machine not a real one. That usually makes things eaiser to fix.

For something easier perhaps

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75111

which just needs the configuration help fixing
