Comment (by acat):

 patch: https://github.com/acatarineu/torbutton/commit/30115

 The problem seems to be common to #27749 and #25145, these should also be
 fixed with the patch. Currently we keep a mapping of
 gBrowser.selectedBrowser -> socks credentials for the circuit display,
 populated when there is a request. This fails for cases when the browser
 "moves" to a different location but there is no request, which I think is
 the case here and in the other bugs above. In this case, upon successful
 login there are several HTTP redirects, one of which triggers the XSS
 popup and is blocked.

 The suggested fix keeps a mapping of domain -> socks credentials instead.
 I have seen #16936, which I think aims for a different approach, but not
 sure why.
