This is fixed for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS which will use the browser to log in
to Google or Microsoft for Settings > Online Accounts.
Previously, it used a popup powered by WebkitGTK. Webkit is the engine
in Apple's Safari browsers so this user agent identifies itself as
similar to Safari.

Title:
goa crashes when trying to authenticate against google & DUO
Status in gnome-online-accounts package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
My google eMAIL account is managed by my organisation. They recently
required everyone to validate their sign-ons (sign-ins) via a central
authentication server (CAS) using the 2FA from DUO. When attempting
to connect using goa, I am now re-directed to my organisation's CAS
and when the DUO login page refreshes, it states that login could not
proceed because I am using a SAFARI browser that is more than one year
out of date. Of course, I'm not using SAFARI, but rather goa. Is
there a way to deed the proper header (a more recent version of SAFARI
in goa) to be able to complete 2FA with DUO?
