Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 571997

(Firefox Graveyard :: Account Manager, defect)

Description

[Kevin Hamacher]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:2.0b8) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0b8
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:2.0b8) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0b8

After starting Firefox and entering the masterpassword, all passwords can be seen without re-entering it.
Normaly, you have to click page informations -> security -> display saved passwords.
Then a "Enter your masterpw"-dialog opens. You can skip them then you only see the names. But if you click right on any entry and then click on Copy password you can see the password! If you want to try it with "Display passwords" then you have to enter your master-pw but with this copy-method you can see it without re-entering it.
Hope you understand it, I'm german^^.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Enter masterpw at firefox-start
2.Go into the 'Display saved passwords'-dialog, cancel any enter your master-pw-dialogs
3.Rightklick on any entry and click "Copy password"
Actual Results:  
The password is in the clipboard

Expected Results:  
Nothing
