Describe the problem

Steps to reproduce:

1. Use the Firebase JS client SDK in an environment where process is defined, but process.env isn't, like Nuxt 3 in the browser.
2. Observe the following error in the console:

I couldn't figure out how to label this issue, so I've labeled it for a human to triage. Hang tight.

Which release has this closed issue? Or is it not released yet?

[bcspragu]

Poking around the repo, it looks like it hasn't been released yet. Seems like some semi-automated process will ship out 1.7.1 of @firebase/util, and this directory will get emptied out. The changelog will likely also get updated.

We will release this week, we are aiming for tomorrow to try to get this out quicker (releases are normally on Thursday) but it's not guaranteed.

I just hit this issue after upgrading to firebase@9.11.0 - downgraded to 9.10.0 for the time being.

The fix has been released in 9.12.0.
