This is with Firefox 125.0 installed via Snap on Kubuntu Linux 23.10
with Kernel 6.5.0.
I'm using my YubiKey Neo as second factor via U2F for my accounts at
Heroku, Google, GitHub, TYPO3 and Bitwaren. This is the device
description my system logs when I insert my YubiKey:
Yubico YubiKey OTP+FIDO+CCID
A few days ago (possibly after a Firefox update, but I'm not completely
sure, as I do all updates in a timely manner), using the YubiKey U2F for
2FA stopped working reliably anymore in Firefox: Most of the times, the
website does not register when I touch the pad on the YubiKey, and
sometimes it still does.
My private GPG key on the key is still working fine, and U2F on Chrome
also continues to work reliably.
We have the same problem on a different computer (also Kubuntu 23.10,
also on Firefox) with a different YubiKey on different accounts.

I've just tested with Firefox 125.0.1 downloaded as tgz: In this non-

Very strangely, now with the Snap version of Firefox, the problem
doesn't occur anymore.

Using my yubikey worked reliable for months (mainly for GitHub login),
but since somewhere last week it stopped working.
It still works in Chromium (124.0.6367.60, snap)

Amin, is there something on 22.04 which might be regressed and not on
newer versions?

Can you check `snap connections firefox` and especially if you have:
> u2f-devices firefox:u2f-devices :u2f-devices -
I think this is used for any of those keys

This is where I'm stuck on when I disconnect the `u2f-device` plug of snap:
```
$ snap connections firefox
[...]
u2f-devices firefox:u2f-devices - -
[...]
```

Unfortunately, I cannot use `mozregression` because:
- `snap connect` from `mozregression` hit https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snapd/+bug/2043993
- not doing `snap refresh` we have non working u2f interface at all
- doing `snap refresh` updates us to latest version ...

I manually went back to version 122 and it was still no working, so
based on comment 7 and comment 2, I suspect it's more likely to be a
snapd / integration issue below firefox and unrelated with us?

I'm not aware of any related regressions on 22.04. Sadly I can't do any
testing for this at the moment because I don't have any U2F devices, but
I will look into acquiring one and see if I can reproduce the issue
and/or find out anything more.
I wonder if Firefox's Browser Console (Ctrl+Shift+J) might show any
relevant error messages? Also, since the issue occurs with the Firefox
snap, I'd recommend looking over https://snapcraft.io/docs/debug-snaps
for some general tips for debugging snap packages for issues like
apparmor policy violations, etc., and gathering and providing more logs
that may help diagnose the issue.
