Firebase auth: Operation timeout issues on login, using social media login eg. google

[vaibhav-pande]

[REQUIRED] Describe your environment

• Operating System version: Windows 10
• Browser version: Chrome
• Firebase SDK version: 7.19.1
• Firebase Product: auth

[REQUIRED] Describe the problem

We are using firebase on webapp which acts as an SSO provider for our connected applications, deployed on appengine.
At times, after we enter the credentials for social media login eg. google, it doesn't move ahead and gets stuck, giving operation time out error.
When we inspected on console, we could see the error with iframewrapper.js which is part of the highlighted javascript.(iframewrapper.js)
Even though having good network bandwidth, many users are facing this issue they are able to login only after multiple retries.
What is the probable cause for this issue and solution?
Is this issue resolved post 7.19.1 Firebase release? We have continuously updated the versions from 7.13.2 till 7.19.1.
We could see many issues logged on various forums regarding operation time out, but we couldn't get satisfactory resolution till date.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Go to sso sign in page
2. Click on social media login option eg. google
3. Enter credentials
4. It comes back to sso sign in page giving operation time out error on google icon

Hi, thanks for reaching out--

A couple quick questions to help debugging:

1. Are you using signInWithPopup() or signInWithRedirect()? (From your post it sounds like redirect but I want to double check)
2. Does the network tab show any connections failing?

Thanks for that info. This does sound like a bug; I've filed one internally to track (b/172836836).

Just a few more questions:
Is this happening for all Chrome? Just incognito? Are you able to reproduce this in another browser (Firefox/etc) as well?

Does the iframe show up in the DOM (meaning it was successfully loaded)?

Yes we are facing this issue on other browsers as well not just Chrome/Incognito
