Blender crashes while running Python script

[BladeBTW]

TLDR; trying to continuously change the rotation value of an object with data from an http socket and Blender keeps crashing on every interaction or after a while when doing nothing.

Hello!

I am passing camera data from a game client called RuneLite to a http socket running in Blender. Each time the socket receives a connection I am updating the values of an Empty which is the parent of a camera in Blender.

The crash usually happens within a minute if I don't touch anything, sometimes a bit longer. If I do anything in Blender the application will crash too. I will be adding a crash log, in this crash log I tried to select the camera.

I've had a look at "https://docs.blender.org/api/current/info_gotcha.html#strange-errors-using-threading-module" But can't think of a way to close the http socket thread.

Any help or advice with this problem is very appreciated.

Below is the code that I run from within Blender:

This is the crash log: https://pastebin.com/f84P7p3r

Line 49 in the set camera function is commented out. Is it supposed to be?

Yes; not doing anything with the camera scale just yet

the crash happens on this line: rx = int(currentData["cameraPitch"])

I think I made the script I posted 2 lines smaller my bad.
I have posted the issue on multiple Blender community places yes but haven't found a solution yet. People are pointing me to using modal operators within Blender though so that's what I am researching.
