[RESOLVED] Google search xss attempt

Post by Jackal »

Hi,
Last few days whenever I do a google search I get a warning from NoScript "NoScript filtered a potential cross-site scripting (XSS) attempt from [https://www.google.com.au]. Technical details have been logged to the Console"
And the console shows me this "Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://www.google.com/_/og/promos/g. (Reason: CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' missing)."

Should I be concerned, is there anything I should do?

Hi, when I try to download the development build Firefox can't do the download it appears

Firef ox Has prevented this site from requiring the installation of additional components

i try to download but when it seems to download it says

Unable to download the add-in due to an error in the connection

Edit

Thanks to another reading of the FAQ page I installed the 5.09rc3 build. The XSS Google problem is solved

Thanks so much ^__^
