Thank you for the bug report. Verified as described.

this has been fixed. The crash was caused by an undefined datatype. Wb should allow missing datatypes therefore it exports invalid SQL for the posted .mwb file. SE version has a validation that warns user about such issues, in OSS-Edition, the user has to take care of that.

An entry was added to the 5.0.26 changelog entry:

When attempting to export a model using the File, Export, Forward Engineer SQL CREATE Script menu item, Workbench crashed on clicking the wizard's Finish button.

I am encountering this same problem on OSS version 5.0.29.
Even with a very simple 1 column table of valid datatype, application crashes when doing File-Export-Forward Engineer or when doing right-click "Copy SQL to clipboard".
