Steps to reproduce:

The only thing related to this is that I installed the Enhancer for YouTube extension a few days ago.
I don't know what's going on, I tried launching Firefox in Safe Mode, then I reinstalled it and created a new profile. No extensions, no bookmarks, no history, completely clean. I even logged in on another account on YouTube and it's the same.

Actual results:

If I want to subscribe or unsubscribe from a channel I get the "your session has expired" message with a sign-in button, even if I'm already signed in. Also, I can't comment on live streams, I get "there was an error".

I forgot to add. If I click on my profile that's all that I get. As you can see, the buttons related to my profile are missing.

Bugbug thinks this bug should belong to this component, but please revert this change in case of error.

All right, so, I found the culprit. It was Kaspersky Security Cloud. A few days ago I also installed it but I didn't think it could cause this weird bug. It doesn't really make any sense, why would an antivirus break that thing?!
