Stopped working with newer Firefox

[UnitedMarsupials]

Using Firefox 78.5.0-ESR the code displays the error at the very beginning:

var Cc = Components.classes;
if (typeof(Ci) == "undefined") {
	alert("cannot run in this environment, try error console");
	throw "exit";
}		

and exits. Changing Ci to Cc does not help... I suspect, some tightened security setting no longer allows console scripts to access the Components -- if there is a work-around, instructions need updating to document it.

Thank you!

Are you sure it the newest? Mine is 83.0 and just tested working completely fine. Try to upgrade possibly and see if that helps.

It is the newest on the ESR-branch, which corporations use to ease support work...

Mine is 106.0.5 which doesn't work either.

Not working on 118.0.1 (64-bit) as well.. It is not getting the password even though it is there in the DB
No entries with this password found

@dk please advise

I see, I missed the ESR part, was testing on a vanilla Firefox which works ok as usual. I guess the "tightened security" in the ESR marketing is exactly what it is, no access to the parts that are usually available. I wonder if some hidden setting should unblock this access but that means I need to either to dig down in the FF code or ask the FF devs about this... but am unsure I have the right mindset for this, sorry

@dk Sorry could not get the "unsure I have the right mindset' for this part

What i mean is that either process is long and thankless, and i am hardly looking forward doing them since i am not using the ESRs. I don't want to sound smug saying "patches are welcome" but if people using ESRs can find out what is the problem i would gladly merge a PR
