Attempting to add a Google online account to KDE Plasma results in an "invalid token" error, suggesting potential security issues.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open KDE System Settings.
2. Navigate to "Online Accounts."
3. Attempt to add a Google account.

OBSERVED RESULT

An error message appears stating: "You submitted changes to createaccount.cgi with an invalid token, which may indicate that someone tried to abuse you, for instance by making you click on a URL which redirected you here without your consent. Are you sure you want to commit these changes?"

EXPECTED RESULT

The Google account should be successfully added to KDE Online Accounts without any security warnings or errors.
