Steps to reproduce:

3. Click on Add Exception
4. Add Security Exception window appears

Actual results:

Security Exception window appears with excessive negative space in window causing buttons at bottom to be cut off and, depending on screen resolution, completely inaccessible. Window is not resizable.

Expected results:

Security Exception window should appear with automatic sizing allowing all buttons to be accessible. At the very least, the window should be resizable.

Hi,

Thank you for taking the time to add this report. However, I was not able to reproduce the issue that you mentioned. I verified both the latest release build and the latest Nightly one, and the Security Exception window was properly sized.

Could you please retest this using the latest FF release and latest Nightly build (https://nightly.mozilla.org/) and report back the results? When doing this, please use a new clean Firefox profile, maybe even safe mode, to eliminate custom settings as a possible cause (https://goo.gl/PNe90E). I'm asking this because there was a similar issue reported a while back ( bug 1427170 ) and even though there was no fix for it at that time, the issue did not reproduce anymore for the reporter after a while.
