Hello!

When I open a copy-protected file, an alert with no content is displayed in my browser. From what I could identify, the problem is in the pdf.sandbox.external.js file on line 130.

I currently use the lib as a dependency and not creating a fork just to remove this is not worth it for me.

Is this really a planned feature or really a bug? In versions 3.9 the problem did not occur.

Thank you for your attention.

Web browser and its version

Operating system and its version

Unfortunately none of the above is relevant under that heading, as the issue template tells you, and that information belongs further down in the issue template instead.
Furthermore, you didn't actually include the PDF file here which means that this issue isn't actionable/valid as-is.

PDF.js version

4.8.69

That version is no longer supported, please find the latest releases at https://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/getting_started/#download

The embedded script is checking for global.numero_serie and I didn't find anything about it.
I created a pdf form from scratch and checked for it and nothing...
That said, it's pretty useless to display an empty alert since it doesn't bring any useful information for the user, so let's avoid to display it.
