Mac Mail search term automatically populated in Firefox search field

Completely bizarre behavior that I cannot explain or find any google matches for. When I enter a search term in Mail, I don't even have to hit enter, it shows up in Firefox's search field as soon as I make Firefox the active application (iMac desktop). It happens if I have the Firefox search bar open, or if I open it (Cmd-F) afterwards. It happens in Private Browsing. E.g. if I clear the Firefox field, go to Mail, type some letters into the search field, as soon as Firefox becomes the active window, the search term is populated.

I will entertain any explanation or suggestion, whether based in reality or not. FWIW I'm running Malwarebytes unpaid version so I have some sorta protection. For FF extensions I have Ublock origin, FB Purity, and FB container. I tried turning them off; no change. I didn't try restarting FF after turning them off though, too many tabs needed right now.

thanks, jim

To whom it may concern,

I have an angular application accessing data from a 3rd party data provider. To get data, POST-requests are sent to the data provider REST API (https://capzlog.aero). The application works correctly using Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge. However, when using Firefox, the following error appears:

"Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://capzlog.aero/api/pel/public/externalsystemflights/GetMissingIDs. (Reason: CORS request did not succeed). Status code: (null)."

As the POST request contains basic authentication, a preflight-request (OPTIONS) is first sent to the data provider. This request fails when using Firefox (but not when using Chrome or Edge), see attached screen-shots.

I have spent 4 days on the internet trying to figure out a solution, but I could not solve the issue. I tried the following: 1) check the certificates of the 3rd party provider (https://capzlog.aero): There are no issues. 2) start Firefox in safe-mode, disactivating the "Enhanced Tracking Protecting", clearing the cache. 3) changing the following Firefox settings:

   security.enterprise_roots.enabled (true<->false)
   security.tls.version.min (1<->3)
   security.tls.version.max (2<->4)
   network.http.network-changed.timeout

I tried sending the "OPTIONS"-request using curl and it worked as expected:

curl --verbose -XOPTIONS -H "Access-Control-Request-Method: POST" -H "Origin: https://projectz.numericalsolutions.ch" https://capzlog.aero/api/pel/public/externalsystemflights/GetMissingIDs

I really do not know what to do anymore to solve that problem.

As the problem is impacting hundreds of users, I really hope there is a solution.

In advance thanks for your help.

Semaphore.social is a mastodon/fediverse web client. I've been using it without issue up to now and it has not updated recently.

After a few hours running the CPU usage of Firefox becomes very high (25-50%) and the about:performance shows that it is due to this tab, which shows at values from 110 to 160% or thereabouts.

I haven't noticed this before updating to Firefox 134.0 so I suspect it may be a Firefox regression.

However I cannot work out what the cause is, how to fix it, or if I should file a bug on it.

Any ideas on how I can fix this?

The increasing volume of spam is getting annoying. If I filter spam messages they get put aside, and that doesn't hurt the spammer. What I would like is a reject option so that the spammer gets a bounced email. that will really annoy him and perhaps 'encourage' him to not spam me.

I tried to open settings because I need to change account passwords. As soon as I open settings Thunderbird crashes after showing the settings page for half a second. Latest Thunderbird version under latest windows 11 version. Anyone else has this problem? Restarting the PC (miracle cure for problems under windows) did not solve the problem. Anyone else has this? Anyone knows a solution?

I cannot access my accounts passwords, so the problem is rather worrisome and urgent.
