A short update on this problem. I just applied patches to bring FF to 68.3.0esr. The flickering is still there, a bit, but at least I can input COMPLETE passwords when prompted. Oddly the flickering now seems to be more site dependent than previously.

I just applied a bunch of updates to my CentOS 7 system yesterday, one of which was a Firefox update to 68.0.1esr.
Now when I bring up sites I would log in to -- my bank, credit cards, etc., the Password box is wonky and shakes and doesn't display successive dots for characters I type, nor does it accept what I type. My work around currently is to type the password first, then my userid but ???!!!!! Using either a <tab> to get to the Password box or just a click in the Password box causes the same results.
Previous Firefox version which worked fine --firefox-60.8.0-1.el7.centos.x86_64
HELP!
