Firefox (especially Gmail) cannot complete some requests: no responses are returned (zero bytes), assume that because of Endpoint Agent

It is almost impossible to use Gmail (mail.google.com) in Firefox. There are no problems in Chrome on the same machine.

In the browser developer console / Network tab I see some requests are without responses (zero bytes responses). Some with SSL_ERROR_BAD_MAC_ALERT

GMail app constantly shows yellow warning: "Ups... the system encountered a problem. Retrying in ..." .  "Retry now" link doesn't help.

  • Along with changing DNS settings, some additional guidance related to firefox has been shared in the following document. 
    - SSL/TLS decryption of HTTPS websites

    1. Enter 'about:config' in the address bar and press Enter.

      A warning page may appear. Click Accept the Risk and Continue to go to the about:config page.

    2. Set 'security.enterprise_roots.enabled' to True.

      This tells Firefox to trust the Windows root certificate store.

    If your issue continues to persist, I recommend opening a case with Sophos Support so that we can look into the issue further and make compatibility changes for the future.
