Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox :: Security, defect)

Description

[Maxx Crawford [:maxx]]

Ported from GitHub issue #180

Note – This issue relates to how the doorhanger should behave, which is still being refined. Please confirm with the PRD on what the explicit behavior should be.

[Affected Platforms]:

• All Windows

[Affected Versions]:

• Firefox Release 70.0.1, Build ID 20191030021342

[Prerequisites]:

• doh-rollout.enabled pref must be set to true

[Steps to reproduce]:

1. Open the browser with the profile from prerequisites.
2. Close the tab where the DoH doorhanger is displayed.
3. Reopen the previosuly closed tab and observe the behavior.

[Expected result]:

• The tab is reopened and the DoH doorhanger is displayed again.

[Actual result]:

• The tab is reopened but the DoH doorhanger is no longer displayed.

[Notes]:

• According to the documentation, the doorhanger should continue to be triggered unless the user does any of the following actions:
  • Clicks okay
  • Clicks disable protections
  • Clicks "esc" key while its in focus (triggers an okay click)
• The issue is reproducible with the 1.1.0rc1 version of the add-on.

This symptom as it is will not be fixed. The underlying UX condition will be addressed in bug 1605022.
