Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[marco.bellaccini]

Attachment: Screenshot_ffandroid.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0

Steps to reproduce:

• open Firefox for Android
• navigate to www.google.com
• hit "Sign in"
• enter a valid username
• hit Next
• enter a WRONG password
• hit Next
• hit the green padlock icon

Actual results:

Despite the connection being encrypted and the padlock being green, connection is described as Insecure.

Expected results:

Connection should have been described as Secure and the "Verified by" statement should have been displayed.

Bug-report note: I think this is just a graphical interface issue, however I'm flagging the "Security" checkbox for keeping the bug hidden (just in case it's something else)
