File drag and drop in Firefox not working from "File Upload" explorer window

We have used the upload functionality of buefy where any files can be dragged for upload. This works fine in Chrome. However, I am having troubles in Firefox.

Workflow: In Firefox, when I click on the browse button/DragAndDropSpace, a window pops up titled, "File Upload" If I click a file and click "open" it works fine, but I can't drag any files out of the "file upload" window. However, if I open my file explorer window, I can drag and drop the files in drag and drop space, just fine from the File Explorer window, but when I try to drag from the popup window titled "File Upload", I get a ghost image with a circle and red slash.

Expected behavior Since it is working in Crome browser so it should also work on other browser.

First I had filed the issue with buefy team but as per buefy team, It is a issue of Firefox. Buefy Bug Link : https://github.com/buefy/buefy/issues/1729

I have uploaded the bug video on buefy bug please find the attachment "BuefyUploadBug.zip"

I have uploaded the snapshot of issue please find the FirefoxIssue.jpg

If you need more details please let me know.

I'm not sure if it's the cause of the issue, but there were recently some issues with certain drag and drop related issues in Firefox. See Drag and Drop errors with Firefox Launcher Process enabled and Windows UAC disabled - How to Fix for more information.

Hope this helps.

Is there any other workaround possible? Please let me know if you need more input from my side.

Is this a bug of FireFox? Please confirm So I can plan accordingly.
