Description
Description
When trying to see available updates, the loading icon just keeps indicating loading. The inspector shows a JavaScript error.
Steps to reproduce
- Clean install Craft CMS 3.3.17
- Login CMS
- Go to Utilities -> Updates
- See "Checking for updates..." plus loading icon
- Open browser inspector
- See "TypeError: e.updates is undefined" in UpdatesUtility.js:29:24
Additional info
- Craft version: 3.3.17 (also tested in existing project on versions 3.3.16.1 & 3.3.16.3)
- PHP version: 7.2
- Database driver & version: MySQL 5.7.27
- Plugins & versions: none
Edit: Just now figured out this is an issue with at least Firefox Developer Edition 72.0b4, the issue cannot be reproduced in Chrome 78.0.3904.108

Reproduce the Updates utility failure in Firefox Developer Edition 72.0b4 using the listed Craft CMS versions, then inspect UpdatesUtility.js at line 29 and the reported TypeError. Compare the same page in Chrome, and consider the issue done when the Updates page completes its check without the JavaScript error.
