[🐛 Bug]: Unicode file upload not supported in chromium standalone

[kitchra]

What happened?

Running a Selenium script which uploads a file with a unicode filename fails when using the seleniarm chromium image.

Sample script:

import os
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
driver = webdriver.Remote(command_executor="http://localhost:4444", options=options)

driver.get("https://cgi-lib.berkeley.edu/ex/fup.html")
drop_target = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//input[@name='upfile']")
drop_target.send_keys(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)), 'űűőőóö.txt'))
value = drop_target.get_attribute("value")
assert "??????.txt" not in value, f"value was {value}"

The same script works in the following scenarios:

• local webdriver
• selenium grid remote webdriver
• selenium/standalone-chrome image

The only time it does not work is when using the chromium image. Although the keys get sent as űűőőóö.txt, the value in the element becomes '??????.txt` rather than preserve the unicode.

Command used to start Selenium Grid with Docker (or Kubernetes)

docker run --rm -it -p 4444:4444 -p 5900:5900 -p 7900:7900 --shm-size 2g seleniarm/standalone-chromium:latest

Relevant log output

Traceback (most recent call last):
  line 13, in <module>
    assert "??????.txt" not in value, f"value was {value}"
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AssertionError: value was C:\fakepath\??????.txt

Operating System

macOS Sonoma

Docker Selenium version (tag or chart version)

120.0

These images are based on debian and most likely there is a language pack missing to support this. The plan is to move them to ubuntu and then it will most likely start working.

ARM64 images is merged to selenium registry and using Ubuntu based (https://www.selenium.dev/blog/2024/multi-arch-images-via-docker-selenium/). Can you please check latest images and confirm?
