I ran into a similar problem a few months ago running postgresql on debian
bookworm.
It was discussed here on the list and I've also filed a bug against
debian's postgresql package:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1059476

The issue is caused by a bug in the very old version of llvm (14), debian
links postgresql against (despite newer versions 15/16 are also included in
bookworm).
Despite being based on debian, ubuntu's postgresql links against llvm-15
and there at least my crashes were not reproduceable, despite same
postgresql version + postgresql.conf.

It would be great if you could also leave a comment at the debian bug
report, as they seem rather reluctant to change anything.

Best regards, Clemens
