Hi all,

Since updating to Firefox 147.0.3 (64-bit) earlier last week, I can no longer open the noVNC console in PVE. It just shows an endless loading spinner when trying to connect to any VM console.

Environment:
  1. PVE Version: 9.1.5
  2. Firefox: 147.0.3 (64-bit)
  3. Other browsers tested: Chrome, Edge (both working perfectly)

Symptoms:
  • Clicking "Console" on any VM opens the noVNC window, but it stays on an infinite loading spinner
  • No error message visible in the UI
  • Browser console (F12 >> Console tab) shows no JavaScript errors
  • The network tab shows no failed requests (all HTTP 200 OK)

Already tested:
  1. Firefox Private/Incognito mode >> same issue
  2. Hard refresh (Ctrl+F5) >> no change
  3. Other browsers on the same machine >> work without issues (ruling out server-side/network problems)

Is anyone else experiencing this with the latest Firefox 147.x? It worked fine before the browser update, so I suspect either a Firefox regression or a changed security/policy setting that's blocking the WebSocket/VNC handshake.

If others can reproduce this, I'm happy to provide more detailed logs or debug info if needed.

Thanks for any feedback!
