Found in

  • 136.0a1 (2025-01-30)

Affected versions

  • 136.0a1

Preconditions

  • Add the pref ‘browser.contextual-password-manager.enabled’ in about:config and set it to true
  • Have the Sidebar panel added to the browser toolbar
  • Have some saved logins
  • Have a Primary Password set

Tested platforms

  • Affected platforms: Windows 11, macOS 13, Ubuntu 22.04
  • Unaffected platforms: none

Steps to reproduce

  1. Launch the browser with the profile from the prerequisites and cancel the Primary Password (PP) prompt
  2. If not already open, enable the Sidebar panel from the browser toolbar and select the Password menu from the dropdown
  3. Cancel the PP prompt again (if prompted)
  4. Go to about:logins (or any other page that requires entering the PP) and enter the Primary Password
  5. Observe the Password list in the sidebar

Expected result

  • The saved logins should be revealed in the Password sidebar after entering the PP

Actual result

  • The saved logins are not revealed in the Password sidebar after entering the PP. The Empty state is still shown

Regression range

  • Not a regression, as this is a new feature

Additional notes

  • See the attached video
  • Also reproducing when entering the password from about:preferences
  • Closing and reopening the sidebar does not resolve the issue - the Empty state is still displayed. However, the issue is resolved if switching between "All" and "Alerts" radio buttons
