NoScript 11.3.7 blocks specific Facebook URI even when set to Trust

[jnoscript1959smith]

Greetings. Here is my setup and the issue I've encountered.

Ubuntu 20.04.4 on a desktop pc
Firefox 98.0
NoScript 11.3.7

Earlier today I updated my Firefox Add-On of NoScript. Prior to the update I was running NoScript v11.3.6. Afterward, v11.3.7. I soon noticed an issue when accessing a specific URI in Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/?sk=h_chr. This URI allows the Facebook Newsfeed to display in chronological order, with the most recent posts at the top of the page. I use this view virtually all the time when accessing Facebook

I always set NoScript to "Temp TRUST" for the two items NoScript finds: facebook.com, and fbcdn.com. This has always worked very reliably and consistently for me.

After updating NoScript to v11.3.7 I logged into Facebook.com, went to the menu running down the left hand side of the screen, selected "Most Recent" (which sends you to https://www.facebook.com/?sk=h_chr), I did indeed get my news feed displayed in chronological order, with most recent posts at the top of the page. But, I when refreshed the page while using that specific URI my browser returned a blank page, and the NoScript icon changed from the blue "S", to the "ghostbusters" symbol. I had not changed any NoScript settings. I simply refreshed the page.

This behavior was consistent - I could initially get the Most Recent view of my news feed, but the moment I refreshed the browser, a blank page was returned. I decided to uninstall NoScript 11.3.7 and reinstall 11.3.6. Once I did that, I was able to refresh Facebook while using https://www.facebook.com/?sk=h_chr and each time the page displayed properly. There appears to be a difference between NoScript 11.3.6 and 11.3.7 that handles the refresh of that URI differently. 11.3.6 allows the content of the page to display after a browser refresh, 11.3.7 returns a blank page, as if NoScript were blocking all the content in spite of it being set to Temp TRUST. The spontaneously changed appearance of the NoScript icon seems to confirm this. I also set NoScript to full TRUST for that URI, but that made no difference.

Also, for what is is worth, when NoScript 11.3.7 was blocking the content I checked "View Page Source" and did see the Facebook page source, but it was simply not displaying.

If I can provide any more information, please let me know. Thank you!

Thank you for your report.
Could you please send me your NoScript Options>Export file for examination?

Hello Giorgio, thank you for your time!

I have emailed my noscript_data.txt to the email address listed on https://maone.net/ using the email account I have registered here on InformAction Forums, [redacted].

I am currently running NoScript 11.3.6 rather than 11.3.7. If you need a noscript_data.txt while I am running 11.3.7, let me know and I will install it and do a new export. Thanks!
