This entry from the file is a clue:

" Sibelius 20.9.0
Direct export, not from Dolet
Sibelius / MusicXML 3.0"

Sibelius needs this 'Dolet" installed in order to create a file MU4 can read. You can run a search for it online.

For 3.7 I backported it in https://github.com/Jojo-Schmitz/MuseScore/pull/710
It does fix the crash, but reports that score as corrupt (Leons's version dies the same)

Measure 11, staff 2 incomplete. Expected: 139/128; Found: 26/24

And with that fixed it stumbles accross measure 14 staff 1

I'm not sure single incident fixes help the over all problem much. Those problems didn't exist in Sibelius. It is know that the dolet is needed. I have been importing mxl from Sibelius for years without problem because of the dolet.
