Bitwarden extension freezing web application

Hi,

One of our webapplications became unresponsive today, unfortunately its internal tooling so I cant provide a URL, but looks like the bitwarden extension is causing the issue:

Bitwarden, Content, fido2, autofill-init.js takes 92s to complete getShadowRoot(node). This started this morning, anyone else seeing similar issues?

Any workarounds we can add to our webapp to mitigate this?

I have similar situation with Firefox, but on my side the fields don’t even filled and stays empty.

Also and I have opened a topic about the issue.

Thanks, i should have probably pointed out that there is no login boxes to populate on the page that bw is hanging on. The page displays users of our system, so does have a field called username.

Would it be possible for you to provide a representation of your web app in some manner? (or at the very least some implementation details that we can use to replicate ourselves)

The issue you’re experiencing is due to work done to fix autofill within ShadowDOM elements. We had done some extensive testing to weed out performance bottlenecks on this implementation, but ostensively haven’t covered all edge cases.

Thanks for your reply. I raised this through the support channel also. Doing the following fixed the issue for us:

go to Settings > Sync > Sync vault now, and if you refresh/restart the browser

Looks like the “auto fill team” is aware of the issue and looking into a fix.

Really impressed with the speed of reponse and resolution (Catt Tung) from the integration team. Nice work Bitwarden!
