Adblock Plus spam attack of tabs

Post by JackalB »

Hi! I noticed several similar topics, but I didn't find a solution! I hope for help.

It has been noticed that every update of the ABP causes a spam attack on tabs. I had to disable auto-update, but it doesn't help.
This happens EVERY TIME DURING THE UPDATE. It has been noticed since the summer of this year.
  • All tabs appear at the same time.
  • They fill up everything until they run out of RAM.
  • All tabs are the same.
This is the Yandex browser Current Version 23.9.5.686 (64-bit) (based on Chrome)

Of the additional browser extensions, they work at the same time:
  • A separate application Firemin 9 (To reduce browser memory consumption)
    Conflicts with the ABP have not been noticed for at least 5 years
All applications and extensions have not clashed or caused a similar reaction together before.
The ABP extension has been downloaded and installed from your official website.
The settings have not changed.

I think I've broken the record here 97!

I wrote about this in support several times, but there was no response.

Thanks for reporting. I've been seeing similar reports recently.

We're tracking this problem over at https://gitlab.com/adblockinc/ext/adblo ... ssues/1548 , where we're trying to find ways to reproduce it ourselves. While there are already a few safeguards in place to prevent such a scenario, we could add more to further reduce the potential for such a problem occurring.
