Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:64.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/64.0

Steps to reproduce:

Ubuntu 18.04, Firefox 64, Firefox is set to use system proxy.

Proxy configured through environment variables:
http_proxy="http://proxy.company.org:8080"
no_proxy="127.0.0.0/8"

Actual results:

Trying to access 127.0.0.1 will go through the proxy server, which fails.

Expected results:

When writing the same settings in "network settings -> proxy access to internet", the no_proxy statement 127.0.0.0/8 works as expected and the request is sent to localhost.
