This bug was fixed in the package epiphany-browser - 3.18.11-0ubuntu1

* SECURITY UPDATE: Saved passwords were viewable by a man-in-the-middle
attack website. This has been mitigated by moving all existing saved
http passwords to https. If a website you use is http-only, you can
find your old password in Preferences>Privacy>Manage Passwords.
- Fixed in new upstream security release 3.18.11 (LP: #1661805)
+ New upstream release also fixes inability to enter text in
websites, a regression introduced in 3.18.10 (LP: #1668704)

Title:
Cannot type any input into web pages with epiphany browser after
upgrade
Status in epiphany-browser package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
I upgraded today from Ubunutu 15.10 to 16.04.2 LTS. Since the
upgrade, I can no longer type any entry into any sort of input text
box or area on any web page. I only use the epiphany web browser with
google.com/voice, google.com/calendar, and i.doit.im. This problem
occurs with all three. I also tried the search box at harvard.edu
(just to see if the problem might be site specific).
When I type, a few letters sometime do appear. I'd say about 1-5% of
what I'm typing gets through.
I'm not having any problems like this whatsoever with any other web
browser or any sort of application.
