Firefox ESR 140 does not play well with XFCe themes

I have a Arch based distro that I am using with XFCe 4.20. The GTK version is 3.24. When I apply XFCe themes then that does not get reflected on Firefox 140 ESR. For example see the book marks popup window in the attached image for more details. It is almost fully transparent and not opaque at all.

Similar behaviour is observed when I group a few tabs together into a group and I want to modify the group then also the popup is almost fully transparent and not opaque. Please see the uploaded screenshots for more details.

This is not observed for menu items only for popups.

I have enabled the Title Bar and restarted the browser and still the same issue.
I have set the theme to "System Theme-auto" and still the same issue. If I put the theme to Light or other themes the same behavior is observed.
I have changed in the config file $HOME/.config/gtk-4.0/settings.ini the value of gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme to zero, restarted the browser and still the same issue.

How do I resolve this issue?

Added later 26 min 34 s:
Dont know if this helps. I have tried it with Arc theme. As well as Adwaita. Both of them are light themes and both of them have the same issue.

Re: Firefox ESR 140 does not play well with XFCe themes

Hello and welcome.

Do you have the opacity for popup windows set to a low value at Settings Manager > Window Manager Tweaks > Compositor tab? (However, this should affect all popups).

Also, do you have an ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css file and if so, what is the content?
