I get a "Potential Security Risk" warning when trying to access a Spanish government website in order to download a digital signature (which is required for all interaction with government agencies, etc.) From what I've read, Firefox is blocking this site and there is no way to override this. Is that true? If this is the case, (although I have used Firefox forever) would it be advisable to switch to Chrome or some other browser? It is essential to be able to access this site. Thanks so much for help with this!

Hi there I love FireFox, after years of others recommending, I finally switched and really appreciate so many great features (automatic downloads not at all though). Anyways, I have a Tivo with in house and out of house streaming to Watch Tivo web app and Tivo android app. Until recently, was able to stream anything from Tivo Box throughout house. Android app works awesome, but no longer working on FireFox (or Edge & Chrome) Research shows this is due to a change in website security which is maybe similar to FF issue?

Chrome offered advance warning/remedy..as detailed below....

I am hoping FF team can rise to the challenge and get tivo online working again for the millions of us who still use and love our Tivos.  Or maybe another Tivo fan has a workaround they can share? I sure hope so, I have wasted hours already troubleshooting and hair pulling :(     Any and all assistance appreciated

Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'http://(MYIP):49152/sysinfo/json/svcinfo' from origin 'http://online.tivo.com' has been blocked by CORS policy: The request client is not a secure context and the resource is in more-private address space `private`.

After researching that i found this link Chrome CORS error on request to localhost dev server from remote site

it went into a bit about how "Chrome has implemented CORS-RFC1918, which prevents public network resources from requesting private-network resources - unless the public-network resource is secure (HTTPS) and the private-network resource provides appropriate (yet-undefined) CORS headers."

So basically a public network "online.tivo.com" cannot access my local network (where my tivo is) due to this new CORS-RFC1918 standard.

The is a fix to disable this behavior for now chrome://flags/#block-insecure-private-network-requests

There is a forum where poster tried to embed YouTube video, but YouTube refused to deliver the data. All browsers display there instead their customized messages about website error. So does Firefox for Android 113.2.0, but in this message it refers to itself as Nightly. Seems like developers forgot to tweak some settings in project.


Nightly Can’t Open This Page

To protect your security, m.youtube.com will not allow Nightly to display the page if another site has embedded it. To see this page, you need to open it in a new window.

I want to attach a file and I click on a button (everything works perfectly on Chrome). When I click, in the console I get this error:

Of course, nothing happens when I click. I have Ubuntu 22.04 and apparently Firefox in installed with snap, and I have this problem since snap is used to install Firefox.

Instead of respecting my settings for default/preferred browser (in Linux, both in XFCE and KDE desktops) settings and instead tries to open in Firefox - which is not exactly wrong, as that is my preferred browser, *however* I've set my preferred browser to be a shell script called "firefox-open.sh" that runs the following code:

  1. !/bin/sh

firefox -P default-release "$@"

That's because I have two firefox profiles, and just setting my default browser to Firefox results in error message that says: "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system."

When I click on a link on Thunderbird, the same message pops out. All the rest of the applications I use respect my default browser setting, either directly following the settings, or by calling "exo-open" to open the URL, which in turn opens in my default browser. If Thunderbird used either method, it would open the links nicely in a new window.

This problem occurs on my CentOS 7 system. I know I should switch away from CentOS 7, as it's now a dead distribution. CentOS Stream exists, but it's not the same CentOS distribution and the old ones can't be upgraded to it. Because of this I'm using an outdated version of Thunderbird - I know that, and maybe upgrading it would solve the issue; however I *can't* right now, and I don't know why it does this anyway. My version of Thunderbird is 102.7.1, and I'd love to receive an answer for how I could either make it respect my default browser, or simply configure the command it uses to open link in browser - I could then just configure it to use either my script or the exo-open command, but I see no option for that in the settings, anywhere.

It's quite baffling that both the browser and the email client are from Mozilla, yet it's the only application I'm having trouble getting to open the links in Firefox correctly ;) I hope someone can advice me - other than to upgrade (believe me, I will do that just as soon as I can).
