RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Oliver Ilian 2017-07-07 10:59:05 UTC
Description of problem:
Wen you use copy and paste in a HTML mail under google mail (only tested there), and you have a picture in your signature, and you use Spellcheck, Firefox freezes when copy/pasting text (I will try to explain it a bit better in the How to reproduce" steps

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Firefox 52

Steps to Reproduce:
1. receive a mail with a signature that contains an image
2. Reply/Forward this mail
3. Enable Spell check (here English (United States)
4. start typing random characters to trigger red underlining of errors
5. copy and paste a word from what you typed in 4. at the end of the line

Actual results:
- The system hangs for several seconds (gets worse the more text is underlined and the more signatures are in the thread
- The pictures in all signatures disappear for the freeze time (as if they are reloaded
- The underlining of wrong words disappears for a few seconds and reappears

Expected results:
Copy and paste should not freeze the browser window (or reload the pictures in signatures, or reload the underlining of wrong words


Let me know if you need more info, or if you want to have the behavior recorded  in a video

I cannot reproduce it on version 68. Please reopen if that's still the case.
