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.

I did the following workaround:

and it works.

Comment 2 Tomas Pelka 2022-01-07 17:17:35 UTC
What exact version of firefox (rpm -q firefox) do you have? We fixed this issue in recent build.

Comment 3 aloraini.omar@gmail.com 2022-01-07 17:24:08 UTC
Version: firefox-91.4.0-1.el9.x86_64
I did a 'yum update', but there seems to be no new updates. Maybe my mirror is a bit stale.

So this is dup of Bug 2013247 for sure. If you don't mind I will closed this one of dup of Bug 2013247.

Not sure if you have access to latest rhel9 bits or what repos are you using, eventually Centos Stream should already include fixed firefox-91.4.0-3.el9.
