User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:127.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/127.0

Steps to reproduce:

A webapp using axios sends a Authorization: "Bearer xyz" header.
On copying that token from the DevTools (without the Raw toggle still disabled) into jwt.io. It gives a scrambled token.

This happened on macbook pro M3 firefox 127.0.2
I can not reproduce this with all access tokens, I can not share the access token.

Actual results:

I expected to have the correct access token on my clipboard, instead I got a scrambled one.

I confirmed the backend received the correct access token.

Expected results:

The correct access token should be copy-paste-able.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'DevTools::General' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Product: Firefox → DevTools

Thanks for filing, a few questions:

  • How are you copying the value? Is it from a context menu or something else?
  • How different is the copied version? Is it just truncated, or completely different?
  • Can you share a test page to reproduce the issue?

Thanks
