Hi, this sounds like what I've got. InDesign CC 2018, 13.0. Just tested, the eyedropper tool works fine outside of the table, including in the document that has a table. However, InDesign crashes as soon as I try to use the dropper inside the table.
It's a text-only 3 column x 5 row table displaying sizes and prices. Within one cell I want to have both regular and bold fonts, so I wanted to use the eyedropper tool to speed up the process; however, my InDesign crashes the instant I click within the table with the eyedropper.
