Errors in the browser console on n8n 1 version

[AntonAndreevichMoroz]

Greetings. Updated from version 0.236.3 to version 1.18.2. It seems that everything is configured and everything is working.

Describe the problem/error/question

Cyclic error in the browser console is very scary.
Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: t.includes is not a function
at Proxy.onPostMessageReceived
I think I configured something wrong. Tell me what could be wrong and what settings to check?

What is the error message (if any)?

I think that issue is probably caused by other browser extensions like Metamask sending messages to the window. Can you please try in an incognito window which does not have any extension active if you also see console logs like that.
We will change in future versions to ignore those messages.

Thanks for reporting this.
The issue is exactly what Jan said: a browser extension or a user-script is sending postMessage messages to the n8n window, and we were not ignoring them properly.

We’ve improved the check to ignore such messages, and the fix will be included in the next release on Wednesday.
