Anyone else keep getting this on some sites now with NoScript?:

NoScript filtered a potential cross-site scripting (XSS) attempt

Happens to me so far on Neowin and Intel Core i7-4790K Haswell Refresh Quad-Core 4.0GHz LGA 1150 Desktop Processor BX80646I74790K - Newegg.com - Newegg.com

Anyone else?

Nope working fine here, check for browser add-on compatibility or slow downs, sometimes no-script does this - when my browser is slow to load youtube, and I click too early it will give me a clickjacking attack notice.Rarely happens but I have noticed this twice.

Ok thanks will do.

What version of NoScript are you on?

 

[Rishi]

It says Version 2.9.0.4 and I have set it on automatically update.

Ah ha! Mine is NoScript version 2.9.0.5! I use Firefox and have a addon that automatically updates addons for me every 24 hours and restarts the browser for me as well.

Let me update mine and try again and see what results I get... stay tuned..

Interesting thanks!

I know I am not the only one because someone started a topic about this on the NoScript forum.

Weird.

Maybe they have resolved this by now.. or hosting webserver is different which might be targeted.

True.

Actually No-Script has little erroneous detection but most of the time the culprit will be on 3rd party website link which may show a flag notification. about the response.
