Inserting an image from the clipboard filename does not get a timestamp

Hardy_x58yvf

Since Confluence version 7.17, inserting images via the clipboard no longer works correctly. The image does not get a timestamp in the file name. This leads to the fact that a second inserted image gets the same file name (always grafik.png) and overwrites the first image. There is also no error message that the filename already exists.
Before version 7.17 images always got a filename in the form imageYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS.png.
Possibly it is a problem of the translation. We use german

We using Confulence Version 7.17.2 self hosted Server.

We use Firefox 100. The image name is always grafik.png.

Now i treid with the Chrome Browser Version 101.0.4951.64 and here I get a correct file name with timestamp e.g. image2022-5-12_10-50-39.png

There seems to be a problem with the new Firefox version.

We are using Confluence Version 7.17.4 and have the same problem.

If we use the same Firefox version and do the clipboard insertion (with CTRL-V) at a Jira comment or the description field then a file is generated with a unique filename.
This indicates for me that there is a problem with Confluence working together with the current Firefox version.

I have found the error. In newer Firefox versions, the filename has now been translated for Copy&Paste.

In older Firefox versions the name image.png was transmitted when inserting an image. In newer Firefox versions image.png was translated to grafik.png.

Therefore grafik.png does not match with image.png as specified in the javascript.

The javascript checks for image.png and then inserts the timestamp:

Here is the code:
if(e.name&&"image.png"!=e.name)o=e.name;else{var c=r?"-".concat(r):"";o="image".concat(i.getFullYear(),"-").concat(a,"-").concat(i.getDate(),"_"). concat(i.getHours(),"-").concat(i.getMinutes(),"-").concat(i.getSeconds()).concat(c,".png")}return{fileName:o,fileSize:t,slice:function(t,n){

Solution would be to insert in translation (global default languages) grafik.png for german and accordingly for other languages and then consider this translation with or expression in the javascript.

e.name&&("image.png"||"grafik.png")

We can also confirm the image-insert-from-clipboard-bug exists for Atlassian Confluence 7.18.1. Server Edition and also running a german instance.

The error is however not omnipresent.

It's present for one user, but not for another. Same setup (latest OS+Firefox 102.0.1), so it's weird.

Possible Workarounds:

1.) Save the images separetly and import them via makro

2.) Work with EDGE

The workaround are possible, but not elegant.

Is solely Firefox to blame??

There is an official Jira issue for this by now:

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-79517

The problem is caused by a recent Firefox localization change.
