User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:121.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/121.0
Steps to reproduce:
The menus and toolbars of the compose email and compose calendar event pop-up windows have the wrong colours when running in the Ubuntu Unity desktop environment. This makes the items in these hard to read. Please see the attached screenshots.
A related question is whether these pop-up windows should have menus at all? The main email and calendar windows do not have menus. Instead, their menu items have been moved to the hamburger menu at the top right. The Firefox web browser does likewise. Should the compose email and compose calendar event pop-up windows also have their menus moved to the hamburger menu?

This still happens on 125.0b1, and is quite annoying. Is there any news on fixing it?

I now have the same issue with Thunderbird 128 under Xubuntu 24.04. The dark theme works fine but the themes "System" and "Bright" show broken compose windows (and broken new event windows). I disabled my userChrome.css file but it didn't help. I also changed my OS theme to more popular ones like Greybird or Adwaita but that also didn't help. So for now the only remedy is to switch to dark mode/theme in Thunderbird.

I now fixed it via userChrome.css:
/* correct theming of compose window */
#compose-toolbox {
& > toolbar {
background-color: #444444 !important;
}
}
toolbar#MsgHeadersToolbar {
background-color: white !important;
}
toolbar#FormatToolbar {
background-color: white !important;
}
arrowscrollbox.menupopup-arrowscrollbox {
--panel-color: #eeeeee !important;
--panel-background: #444444 !important;
}
menuitem:hover {
background-color: #f0544c !important;
}
menuitem[disabled="true"]:hover {
background-color: transparent !important;
}
It's not perfect because now all menus have a dark background but I guess it's a good start :)
Also note I've done only styling for the compose window and not for the new-event-window.
