User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:130.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/130.0

Steps to reproduce:

  • Visit the login form of site which is in a language where translation was previously requested for. (Found with Roundcube if its Language is set to en_US, but FF is in German)
  • Try to Login

Actual results:

The Login fails because Firefox Translates hidden meta information (input[type=hidden])/Information that is submitted with the POST Request, that Roundcube processes for the Login.

Expected results:

The page should be shown in the requested language without interfering with Meta-information of HTML Forms or the Translation of Form elements should be reverted when the Form is submitted.

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

Hi Bennet Becker, thanks for filing this!

I believe that this is a duplicate of Bug 1919230, so I am going to mark it as such.

You can read more about the issue and its resolution in comment 10.

This currently affects only Firefox 130 and 131. It should be already fixed in Firefox 132 beta, and I have nominated the fix to be uplifted into the planned dot-release for Firefox 131.0.x.


Please feel free to comment further if you have any more questions.
