Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 270558

(Toolkit :: Password Manager, defect)

Description

[Ricardo]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6

I have an account at http://fraglider.oninet.pt/. The password is saved, so that
whenever i open the page or go to the forum on http://fraglider.oninet.pt/forum/
i don't need to re-login. 
I have administration privileges on that forum, so i have access to the admin
area. The bug occurs when i try to perform an administrative action on a user's
account. I look for the user using it's username. I confirm the search and i
should be able to see his whole profile (username, registration e-mail,
signature, etc...). In fact, i AM able to see his profile BUT his username is
replaced with my saved username AND the "new password" field is filled with MY
saved password, masked with ****.
This does not happen on IE, despite having the password saved there too.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log into forum administration
2. Look up for a user
3. Check the user's profile

Actual Results:  
User's profile shows up but with fields "Username" and "new password" replaced
by my actual username and password.

Expected Results:  
The browser should show his username and the "new password" field should be blank.
