I've noticed this to be the case for quite a while - not just in LO
;-(
There's only one way I know to get around this quirk -
rather than 'copy image', 'save' image to the computer -->
upload from there to the document -->
return to the computer and delete the file ;-)

Maybe I've done something terribly wrong but if our users do a Google
search for a picture then
copy and paste the image into LO it hangs.
If there is a post I've missed about this can you point me to it please
... else the complete description follows
Start a LO document
Open FF or Chrome
Search on a picture eg Cats
Google them shows loads of pictures in a grid of biggish thumbnails which
when you hover over get bigger
Hover over a picture and Copy image
Go to LO and Paste
Picture will now appear in LO
LO will now either run unbelievable slowly of hang completely
If however when you have chosen the image in Google you click on it and go
to the full size image
you can cut and paste successfully. The method that hangs LO worked in
Word and I am getting
a lot of grief over this now we have shown Word the door . !
