Whenever I search in the firefox quantum search bar and it takes me to the google search results, I receive this message:
NoScript detected a potential Cross-Site Scripting attack
from [...] to https://www.google.com.
Suspicious data:
TypeError: this.isBadException is not a function,(URL) https://www.google.com/search?q=potential+xss+attack&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b-1-ab
I also receive this message when I backspace from a page back to the google results. Is this something that I need to be worried about and if so what does this mean?
Thanks for the help

Are you using NoScript version 10.1.5.1? If not, please upgrade and let us know if the problem persists.
*Always* check the changelogs BEFORE updating that important software!

I was encountering the same error xsshelp described (except for the Wikipedia search engine rather than Google) when using NoScript 10.1.5. Updating to 10.1.5.1 solved the issue for me.
