1892210 - Download from http site corrupts the downloaded file (v125 and beta)

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1892115

(Firefox :: Downloads Panel, defect)

Description

[Paolo Periale]

Attachment: A docx with screeshots of the actions, the corrupted report and the same downloaded from another browser (OK).

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:126.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/126.0

Steps to reproduce:

We have an internal site that generates sales reports in pdf and excel (SAP BusinessObjects 4.2). We login to the server, enter in a report and select to download it to our local PC. The service is still http and from version 125 the download is marked as non secure. Firefox gives the option to download anyway, and we select it.
We tested on version 125 and 126.0b2 on multiple PC (Win10, Win11).

Actual results:

The file is downloaded, but it's corrupted.

Expected results:

The file is downloaded and it's readable.
