Ruffle extension caused false positives #166

Closed lihe07 closed 1 month ago

lihe07 commented 2 months ago

Environment: Firefox 124.0 on Linux.

When Ruffle extension is installed, it will replace navigator.plugins and navigator.mimeTypes, resulting in false positives of two related tests.

console

Hi. Thanks for the issue. Ruffle modifies those values resulting in detecting it as "spoofed".

lihe07 commented 2 months ago

I am not sure about the best practice to resolve this. I currently applied a workaround targeting specifically the Ruffle extension.

I guess you can add it to your individual "exceptions". Imo, it is spoofed, so we won't fix it.
