krunner runs plugins in process and crashes if only one of the plugin crashes. 
So it may help to disable plugins until you find out which one it is.

Also I had a similar issue a week ago and it turned out to the a broken baloo 
database. I had "mdb.c" in backtrace. I think there should be debug symbols 
available for it, have you tried libkf5runner5-dbg + plasma-workspace-dbg 
(dpkg -S $(which krunner) returns plasma-workspace)? In that case it helped me 
to delete the baloo database in ~/.local/share/baloo/file set first run to 
true in .config/baloofilerc (or remove it may also work) and stop and restart 
baloo with balooctl, take no baloo processes are running before restarting it.

Also please share the versions of plasma-workspace and libkf5runner5 packages 
you have.

Thanks,
