User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Android 5.1.1; Mobile; rv:47.0) Gecko/47.0 Firefox/47.0 Build ID: 20160604191656 Steps to reproduce: Opened Mozilla Firefox, I was asked to enter The master password But I cancelled it and it allowed access to the browser Actual results: The browser let me in without authentication Expected results: The browser should have asked for re-authentication using a simple dialog box until the correct password was entered.
The master password is for access to the passwords, not anything else. It doesn't "lock down" Firefox in any other way. Use your OS's screen lock for that.
