Sometimes I’ll be browsing Firefox and things go wrong seemingly at random - all pages load indefinitely or show a screen indicating failure to load. This can be fixed by running pkill firefox and then starting a new instance. A look at Dev Tools shows that all requests fail and a message NS_BINDING_ABORTED is shown. I have looked up “firefox NS_BINDING_ABORTED” but none of the results 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 provided any solution.

Does anyone here know more about this issue?

Firefox version information:

Firefox Borwser 126.0

Mozilla Firefox for Arch LInux

archlinux - 1.0

    I don’t have time to browse all the tried solutions but this happens to me when my DNS gets wonky, especially systemd-resolved with dnssec enabled sometimes just stops resolving random domains, even with allow-downgrade.
