Mindfield 4.0b4 for linux 32bit + Noscript 2.0.1rc4 . The following message appears in the errror console since a few days :

Code: Select all

[NoScript XSS] xss.reason.[Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004004 (NS_ERROR_ABORT) [nsIURI.spec]"  nsresult: "0x80004004 (NS_ERROR_ABORT)"  location: "JS frame :: chrome://noscript/content/ABE.js :: anonymous :: line 566"  data: no] --- undefined
It happened also with previous Mindfield builds ( 4.0b3 ) and Noscript 2.0

Have you got any "Anon" ABE rule?

Yes , I found it in a post here in the forum ...

Code: Select all

It seems to be due to an incompatible change in how nsIURI objects work, happened in recent trunk build.
Anon seems not to be working anymore for some requests at least, invstigating.

I've added the same ABE rule in another profile running Firefox 3.6.8 coming from the ubuntu mozilla security PPA and after restarting the browser I found the same XSS message in the error console.

Apart the warning , all seem to work correctly ...

EDIT : the error seems to appear apparently ONLY when visiting any *.wikipedia.org page.

The message doesn't appear anymore in the latest Mindfield build with Noscript v 2.0.2rc5.

I guess it can be declared as solved.
