Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:102.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/102.0

Steps to reproduce:

Go to a social media site such as Bastyon.com, login, cookies work, everything is good so far, then click on a youtube video embedded, try to login to youtube, it says cookies are disabled even though they are NOT disabled. If I open a new window and go to exactly the same URL then cookies work and I can login but not when it's embedded. This behavior started with 102.

Actual results:

Pretty much described in steps to reproduce.

Expected results:

Should have been able to login to youtube even though it was embedded on another site.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Audio/Video: Playback' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Component: Untriaged → Audio/Video: Playback
Product: Firefox → Core

I don't know what Audio/Video has to do with Cookies. This is most definitely an issue with Cookies, not working when the URL is referenced inside a social media post but working when I go to the very same URL in a separate window.

Component: Audio/Video: Playback → Networking

I can't reproduce this locally with a clean profile.
Could you try to use mozregression to help us figure out the regression range?
Thanks.

Hello! I have tried to reproduce the issue with firefox 105.0a1(2022-08-11) on Ubuntu 22.04, could you please answer the following questions in order to further investigate this issue.

  1. Does this issue happen with a new profile? Here is a link on how to create one: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-remove-switch-firefox-profiles
  2. Does this issue happen in the latest nightly? Here is a link from where you can download it: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/channel/desktop/
  3. Do you have any addons installed if so can you list them?

This turned out to be an add-on related issue. I don't know which, I had six, but I disabled them and then Firefox worked properly, I re-enabled them and it continues to work properly so I can't isolate to which app or even reproduce it any longer, but definitely app related so please feel free to close.
