Actual results: Firefox saved my passwords in an non-encrypted format. Expected results: Firefox should require a master password for when users opt to have their passwords saved in the browser.

Not a security bug that needs to stay hidden. Also probably a dupe.

This is not true, it's just not encrypted in a way that depends on the length of something you know. > Expected results: > > Firefox should require a master password for when users opt to have their > passwords saved in the browser. There was an old bug on this and I don't think we plan to do this soon.
