uBO will block ||com^$document randomly => Too many hostname-based filters #4123

Description

@master-bob

Prerequisites

  • I verified that this is not a filter list issue. Report any issues with filter lists or broken website functionality in the uAssets issue tracker.
  • This is NOT a YouTube, Facebook or Twitch report. These sites MUST be reported by clicking their respective links.
  • This is not a support issue or a question. For support, questions, or help, visit /r/uBlockOrigin.
  • I performed a cursory search of the issue tracker to avoid opening a duplicate issue.
  • The issue is not present after disabling uBO in the browser.
  • I checked the documentation to understand that the issue I am reporting is not normal behavior.

I tried to reproduce the issue when...

  • [] uBO is the only extension.
  • [] uBO uses default lists and settings.
  • [] using a new, unmodified browser profile.

Description

Rarely uBo will randomly start blocking all dot com sites with the following filter, ||com^$document, from no filter list.

Screenshot Image

There is no source filter list listed in the warning page.

The first time this happened, months ago, I manually updated a bunch of different filter lists by clicking the clock icon. This caused it to be fixed.

Moments ago when this occurred first I closed and reopened Firefox to no avail. Then, I updated all the "uBlock filters" and it no longer occurred.

I have no personal filters which reference ||com^$document.

A specific URL where the issue occurs.

https://duckduckgo.com/?kp=-2&kav=1&kn=1&k1=-1&kk=-1&kaj=m&kay=b&kak=-1&kax=-1&kaq=-1&kap=-1&kao=-1&kau=-1&kt=n&kae=d&km=m&ka=n&k18=1&kg=p

Steps to Reproduce

I do not know the trigger, so I cannot reproduce. When it happens again I am willing to do more troubleshooting, like checking the logger and Firefox debug console, and am open to suggestions.

Expected behavior

I expect a filter list to be shown in the uBo blocked warning page.
