Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[BASSAM ALRASHEED]

Attachment: fire fox.jpg

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; rv:71.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/71.0

Steps to reproduce:

I transferred firefox for android App from phone to another one using Phone clone App "that App provided by huawei to their phones for transfer data"

Actual results:

I found the App installed automatically and the logins was copied with the App file from the old phone to the new phone,when i checked the logins in the new phone i found the passwords and usernames and showed it ,and visited every site in the new phone without asking me for passwords or logins

Expected results:

the logins ,usernames and passwords and history records shouldn't be transferred ever when we transfer the App from phone to another one, and the App should clear cache and erase history from the copy the will be transfer to other phones.
and you have to stop huawie from helping harm customer privacy and security. and stop phone clone App from transferring fire fox because it install the App automatically when we transfer Apps using it without asking for installation and it transfer logins

Not a security bug.

Huawei controls the OS of the phone, they have root access to all the information on the device. We cannot dictate behavior of Huawei's app.
