CoreTelephony crash - iphone

Question

I am receiving this backtrace from TestFlight regarding one interesting crash.
As far as I understood, the application crashes at some point, when using CoreTelephony. Can this be possible of someone "calling" while the user is using the application?
To my knowledge, the application is not using the CoreTelephony Framework. The Exception reason is SIGSEGV and the crash thread is 0
Thank You!

EDIT: There is a fix for this bug in sdk 1.3.0-beta.2 available here: https://testflightapp.com/sdk/download/
I work at TestFlight. We have just recently discovered this bug. It is an iOS bug with CoreTelephony. The TestFlight SDK uses CoreTelephony. So this will sometimes cause crashes. We have a fix that is going to be ready very soon. It will be included in the next beta (probably 1.3.0-beta.2). I'm very sorry for the trouble!

More information on the crash for those interested:
There is an iOS bug that causes instances of the CTTelephonyNetworkInfo class to sometimes get notifications after they have been deallocated. Instead of instantiating, using, and releasing instances you must instead retain and never release them to work around the bug.
