User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:53.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/53.0 Build ID: 20170422214420 Steps to reproduce: Let Chrome has some saved login data with "тестпароля" string as a password. Run Import from Saved Logins in Firefox, choose Chrome and select Saved Passwords. Actual results: After the import "тестпароля" becomes "ÑеÑÑпаÑолÑ". Expected results: Password should be imported properly as "тестпароля".
Component: Untriaged → Migration
This has likely never worked properly. We should add a test for this.
Priority: -- → P2
This also happened to me when installing 57 and importing passwords from Chrome. Even something as simple as a £ symbol got corrupted.

This should have been fixed by bug 1520949.
