Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/130.0.0.0 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

I tried to subscribe to various mailing lists on SourceForge, e.g.:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/mlton/lists/mlton-user

I entered one letter into the e-mail address field.

I did this with my user agent

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:142.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/142.0

Actual results:

Firefox has crashed, giving a dialog box to write a crash report.

I tried the above several times.

Expected results:

I should have been able to write my e-mail address to the field and subscribe to a mailing list.

This persists after rebooting.

If you go to about:crashes (type it in the address bar and press enter), do you see links to crashes? Can you share a couple?

Hi Francesco,

If it's indeed caused by bug 1978076, this should be already fixed.

What is the build ID in about:support? Can you check for updates?

This is a nightly build Firefox, I did an update, now it does not crashes on the mailing list page on Sourceforge.

Now my Build ID is 20250721090929 .

Side note: I'm not sure that this is a defect caused by Sourceforge directly, because I don't see any actual evidence that WebGPU is being used by it. The URL associated with the crash report in comment 3 is about:newtab.

Wow - this would be very interesting to reproduce locally and see what's going on.
