On any page with a form, we use nonces. If we wait more than 5 minutes after loading the page, to submit the form, the form submit fails and the error page is displayed.
Then naturally we click "Go Back", but then it seems to sometimes load the same cached page again. So the form that we submitted late still has the same nonce and re-submitting the form still fails. Instead, when clicking "Go back" we expected a page refresh so a new nonce is generated. (maybe a simple solution could be to add a random URL parameter to the "Go back" link).
I've had this issue a few times recently, maybe this behavior was changed in the browser in recent weeks/months (firefox), as i didn't have this issue before. Reproduced on our cloud instance
