Firefox extension problems in Ubuntu 24.04

On many if not most sites, Firefox extension is not filling in the login fields in Ubuntu 22.04. I get this message (see image). This did not happen in 24.04. Any suggestions?

@dsgii999 Hi!

Ubuntu or not - this seems very similar to this thread: Firefox autofill suddenly not working for any site → Maybe there are some hints for you already?!

Hello @dsgii999 and welcome to the community!

A few people have mentioned that upgrading to the 2024.8.2 extension fixed the issue for them. Otherwise, people have reported temporary fixes including turning the extension off and on, reinstalling, or reinstalling with getting rid of the old extension directory.

Spoke too soon – it stopped working again, doesn’t fill. I have to copy/paste login/password on every site.

same for me. it worked a couple of days ago. i have just updated my browser, maybe that broke it.
Firefox 130.0.1
Bitwarden 24.9.0, server 24.9.1
do you have any ideas how to debug it?

i also cannot log out in the extension, just getting an endless spinner

Has there been any acknowledgement of this issue?

Here is an explanation from a developer about what might be going on:
