Thanks for the report. Reproduced here.

It seems to be caused by a signed integer overflow in row_is_in_frame
when calculating the frame's end position:

if (pos > winstate->currentpos + offset)
return -1;

When offset is very large (close to INT64_MAX, as in the reported
case), the addition can overflow, in which case the result would wrap
to a negative number (with -fwrapv), causing the comparison to
incorrectly return true. In release builds, this causes valid rows to
be excluded from the window frame. In debug builds, it leads to an
assertion failure.

I think we can fix this by leveraging the overflow-aware integer
operation (ie, pg_add_s64_overflow) to perform the addition here. If
an overflow is detected, we can assume the frame boundary extends to
the end of the partition, meaning the current row is within the frame.
