#30624: Disable NoScript's XSS protection to avoid the whole computer freezing -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: gk | Owner: tbb-team Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Very High | Milestone: Component: Applications/Tor | Version: Browser | Keywords: TorBrowserTeam201905, Severity: Normal | GeorgKoppen201905 Actual Points: | Parent ID: Points: | Reviewer: Sponsor: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- We've had it numerous times now (see e.g. #25315, #24125, #22362) that Tor Browser freezes the whole computer due to NoScript's XSS protection. This is currently visible on https://zeit.de again cause by an embedded https://facebook.com/tr.
I'd finally like to stop playing this whack-a-mole game and come to a better solution. Meanwhile, we can stop enabling XSS protection given that those experiences seriously risk users abandoning Tor Browser, claiming it is broken, and moving on to a much worse solution for their privacy requirements. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/30624> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
