Attachment: text not dropped on reddit.com

Found in

• 132.0a1 (2024-09-18)

Affected versions

• 132.0a1

Preconditions

• Download the DLP test assets from https://drive.google.com/file/d/1yjqVRuxdKV3WnO7D2wzMgDXBuYBxUgVw/view
• Create a distribution folder inside the Firefox folder and paste the policies-1.json to it and then rename it to policies.json
• Run the DLP agent in CMD using: .\content_analysis_sdk_agent.exe --user --toblock=.\d{3}-?\d{2}-?\d{4}. --towarn=.warn. --delays=10

Tested platforms

• Affected platforms: Windows 10/11
• Unaffected platforms: Ubuntu, macOS

Steps to reproduce

1. Enter any random text in Notepad (or any similar app)
2. Open Firefox and go to reddit.com
3. Drag and drop the text entered at step 1 into the search bar (top of the page)
4. Observe the behavior

Expected result

• The dragged text is dropped into the search bar (as reddit.com is part of the AllowUrlRegexList and any content should be allowed)

Actual result

• The dragged text is not dropped into the search bar

Regression range

• This probably happens after bug 1910452. I will set it as the regressor. Please remove it if it incorrect

Additional notes

• Not reproducing if using different URLs for the AllowUrlRegexList
• Also, if reddit.com is not part of the AllowUrlRegexList, the dragged text is analyzed but is still not dropped (when allowed)
• See the attached video

:handyman, since you are the author of the regressor, bug 1910452, could you take a look?

I'll take a look, possibly related to bug 1919537

Sadly the fix to bug 1919537 did not have an effect on this. I'm putting this back to focus on other things.

Note that when I dropped text on the reddit search bar it redirected me as if I had dropped the text on the Awesome Bar.

I am also able to reproduce this in about:logins.
