Greetings everyone! Do the developers know about the bug with the SweetAlert2 component included in both the original Bitwarden and this alternative variant - Vaultwarden? On Bitwarden's GitHub there was even a whole incident about it.
https://github.com/bitwarden/clients/issues/5734

Namely, after the beginning of the famous events last year, and the subsequent sanctions against Russia, a certain system component included in Bitwarden, as well as in its given alternative implementation - Vaultwarden - after some time of operation blocks its web interface in the browser and at the same time tries to download the Ukrainian anthem. This happens if browser language is set to Russian or web vault is hosted on RU/РФ domain.

This situation can be cured by clearing cookies and browser cache, but this is a temporary solution. After some time of using Bitwarden/Vaultwarden , all locks are restored. According to the Bitwarden GitHub incident link I provided above, it is clear that the original Bitwarden developers have identified this bug and have already taken steps to prevent this from happening again. In this regard, a big wish to the developer of Vaultwarden - please do the same.
