Description ghost-87 2021-04-24 20:14:44 UTC
Description of problem:
When visiting sites protected with cloudflare DDoS check, Icecat cannot pass the check.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
78.*.0

How reproducible:
Visit, for example, https://www.linuxquestions.org/

Actual results:
Infinite check loop, not allowing us to enter the page.

Expected results:
Pass the check (takes 5 seconds if OK).

Additional info:
I found a solution and post it here.

Need to delete these strings from icecat.js in omni.ja:
pref("general.appname.override", "Netscape");
pref("general.appversion.override", "78.0");
pref("general.buildID.override", "Gecko/20100101");
pref("general.oscpu.override", "Windows NT 6.1");
pref("general.platform.override", "Win32");

Notes: 1) omni.ja can be unpacked with Unzip tool.
       2) files should be packed again after editing.
       3) it should be repeated with every new build, so it's probably temporary solution, it would be better to create a bug here:
