NoScript, Nightly, and Twitter Images

Post by GeorgeHahn »

When uploading an image to Twitter, Nightly hangs, eventually giving a 'script frozen' warning for: "Script: chrome://noscript/content/RequestWatchdog.js:1669"

After updating to the latest development version of NoScript, the hang still occurs, but instead of an eventual 'script frozen' warning, I am presented with an XSS warning. The warning showed as a bar under the address bar. I told it to permanently allow Twitter, and I am now unable to reproduce the issue.

Could you please revert to your configuration where you got the XSS warning (Twitter non whitelisted, maybe?) and check your Error Console (ctrl+shift+J) for any message starting with "[NoScript", then copy them here?

Thank you.

I am unable to upload photographs to Twitter and experience similar behavior to that described by GeorgeHahn. After pressing the "Tweet" button, Firefox hangs until displaying the script frozen warning. Twitter then reports that uploading a photo timed out.

This was in the Error Console:

Code: Select all

[NoScript DOS] Aborted potential DOS attempt: {POST https://upload.twitter.com/i/tweet/create_with_media.iframe <<< https://twitter.com/ - 7}
(function () {MaxRunTime.increase(40);return this.filterXSS(abeReq);})
I am running Firefox 15.0.1 on Windows 7 64-bit with NoScript 2.5.4. I disabled NoScript and was able to successfully tweet a photo without delay.

Thank you,
