[Affected versions]:

  • Firefox 115.0.2 (64-bit)

[Affected Platforms]:

  • Mac 13.3.1
  • Mac 11.4

[Steps to reproduce]:

  1. Go to "about:logins".
  2. Click on the "Create New Login" button.
  3. Fill in Website address "moz-proxy://<proxy-address>:<proxy-port>"
  4. Fill in Username and Password
  5. Click Save

[Expected result]:

  • The New Login should be saved.

[Actual result]:

  • Clicking Save does not do anything. The new login is not saved.

:buglinking, if you think that's a regression, could you try to find a regression range using for example mozregression?

The reason for failure is moz-proxy://<proxy-address>:<proxy-port> - port number is expected to be a number and < and > characters are not good for the proxy address part.

Lets repurpose this bug to improve how we let user know what actually went wrong.

Severity: -- → S3
Priority: -- → P3
Summary: Clicking "Save" after creating a new login with a "moz-proxy" website address doesn't save the login → Provide feedback to the user when website address is invalid
