Steps to reproduce:

I'm testing WebAuth on my MacBook with Touch ID which works properly in Chrome, but in Firefox it doesn't.

Actual results:

Firefox fires up a pop-up window telling that a %WEBSITE% wants to register an account, but nothing happens (see attachment)

Expected results:

A modal window asking for a device to use for register should appear

Hi Sergey,

I believe this is a duplicate of Bug 1536482

Thank you for taking the time to report this issue!

Just to give a little more flavor to this - Chrome has written a software token that uses TouchID -- there's no such software token provided by MacOS, so we'd need to (as Bug 1536482 says) make our software token production-ready, and then store its secret protected with TouchID. (Right now it stores on-disk in the NSS database).

Thanks for reporting! I'm hoping to make this a GSoC project in 2020.
