Comment (by Abigailm):

 I saw no pattern and have seen this error on multiple sites. It seems to
 be something that is triggered by bots that are spidering sites -- that
 is, when I have been able to trace the error in site logs, it often is
 triggered by a bot such as baidu.   It does seem to help to add this line
 to the robots.txt for the site:

 User-agent: *
 Disallow: */embed/

 Though that is simply taking a step to discourage the triggering event,
 rather than actually addressing the underlying problem.

 And the reason that I am only seeing this with bots may simply reflect
 that my site content is not commonly embedded elsewhere, so real human
 users wouldn't ordinarily be viewing the embeds.
