I would really like to get to the bottom of why NoScript continually pops up this warning just about every other time I do a search in Firefox searchbox:
"NoScript filtered a potential coss-site scripting (XSS) attempt from [chrome:]. Techinical details have been logged to the console."
Below is a sample of the console log during such events.
[CustomizableUI] Custom widget with id loop-button does not return a valid node CustomizableUI.jsm:166
Exception { message: "", result: 2153644038, name: "", filename: "
https://startpage.com/js/extra_util…", lineNumber: 1, columnNumber: 0, inner: null, data: null, stack: "c@
https://startpage.com/js/extra_ut…" } extra_utils.js:1:417
[CustomizableUI] Custom widget with id loop-button does not return a valid node CustomizableUI.jsm:166
[NoScript XSS] Sanitized suspicious upload to [
https://startpage.com/do/metasearch.pl] from [chrome://browser/content/browser.xul]: transformed into a download-only GET request.
This behavior is quite disruptive and inefficient because it makes me have to click through my affected searches two times before they take effect. I love the security of NoScript, but this is a quirk that should be addressed by the developer if need be. I have raised the issue before, but nothing was discovered or corrected. It is, at the very least, an unintended consequence of the program, if not even a bug, strictly speaking.
I am perfectly willing to help work through the issue to whatever extent my noncoding skills allow. Thanks.
