[Bug] Debit/Credit card button clicked and script crashes forcing form to disappear

🐞 Describe the Bug

Making this a new thread since I think the error is different than what other people are experiencing. I am currently trying to use the paypal buttons in sandbox mode, however when I click on the Debit or Credit Card option, it instantly takes me to the “Something went wrong. We’ll take you back to checkout so you can try again.” state. The console logs show this:

Basically, the script is trying to parse a JSON that’s already a JSON so it ends up parsing [object Object] and throws an error within the debit/credit card form iframe and gets me to the “Something went wrong. We’ll take you back to checkout so you can try again.” state.

🔬 Minimal Reproduction

1. Include the paypal checkout components into your site
2. Click on the debit or credit card button

😕 Actual Behavior

I included the image of the error logs above, so I won’t paste it again here. Basically as I said before, the script crashes forcing the whole checkout form to crash in the iframe.

🤔 Expected Behavior

I expect it to finish displaying the debit/credit card form and allow me to fill it out and pay without leaving the page.

🌍 Environment

• Chrome Version: - 79.0.3945.130
• OS version: - 10.15.4
• SDK version (window.paypal.version): - 5.0.128

Affected browsers

It seems like only chrome is affected. I tested on safari and it worked fine!
