Details

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050416 Fedora/1.0.3-2 Firefox/1.0.3 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050416 Fedora/1.0.3-2 Firefox/1.0.3 When I log in to an ftp server putting the username and password in the URL bar, and the login is successful, the username & passwd are no more shown in the URL bar. But if then I print anything in the FTP (be it a file listing, or an html page inside the ftp server, for example) In the upper right space where it should show the URL to the file, it also shows the username and password in plain text. Sorry, I can only test this in Firefox, I don't have the full Mozilla suite installed. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Login to a FTP server which requires authentification 2.Print the file listing 3.Done! Actual Results: It shows your password and username. Expected Results: Well, I suppose it shouldn't show my passwords... This afternoon I mostly gave my teacher at the university my home computer username and password.
Already fixed, will be in Firefox 1.1. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 186695 ***
