I am trying to initialize my gcloud settings for a project. But when I run the gcloud init command, it gives error gcloud crashed.

It was previously working but all of sudden today this command crashed. I tried 'gcloud auth login' and pasted the credentials, but it still gives the same error

From the output that you included, it appears to have completed successfully:

Your Google Cloud SDK is configured and ready to use!

Are you able to use any commands?

gcloud config list
gcloud auth list
gcloud projects list

It's not clear which operating system you're using but it's probable that either some dependent piece of software was upgraded and caused the break; and|or Cloud SDK (aka gcloud) has upgraded on your machine and it is broken.

You may be best-placed to contact Google Cloud Support, or if you don't have a support contract, to file an issue on Google issue tracker for gcloud here:
