NS 2.0.9.8 blocks local resources from virtual host

Just upgraded to NS 2.0.9.8 from NS 2.0.9.7 on Firefox 3.6.13 when the problem presented itself. All local resources are being blocked (css, js, images). Reverting to NS 2.0.9.7 resolves the issue.
Code: Select all
[ABE] <LOCAL> Deny on {GET http://redesign/css/reset.css <<< http://redesign/, http://redesign/ - 4}
SYSTEM rule:
Site LOCAL
Accept from LOCAL
Deny
Seems to be related to forum post

Thanks!

What IP(s) does the "redesign" resolve to?

I'm experiencing this problem too, starting with NoScript 2.0.9.8. Requests to
local are blocked. My environment:
* Firefox 3.6.15
* NoScript 2.0.9.8
* Mac OS X 10.5, up to date w/patches
Hosts file {extract}:
127.0.0.1 local
127.0.0.1 localhost
Typical message in Firefox's error console:
I use
local as a shorthand for
localhost. Both resolve to
127.0.0.1. Requests to
localhost succeed, while any request to
local fails.
Using
localhost instead of
local would mean rewriting quite a few CGI scripts I use day to day.

Workaround: add
my virtual-host-name to the ABE local system rule:
Code: Select all
Site LOCAL
Accept from LOCAL my-virtual-host-name about:blank
Deny
Seems to do the trick.
