918893 - mozillians.org BrowserID login auto-logouts immediately after signin

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Participation Infrastructure :: Phonebook, defect)

Description

[:Atoll]

I cannot login to mozillians.org using BrowserID if I'm using Safari, but Firefox and Chrome work fine.

For some reason, when using Safari, immediately after the popup goes away and the page refreshes to show my full Mozilla name in the upper right, a Javascript fires off that logs me out (complete with an ugly blank white interstitial "Logging you out" page that's missing all of the home page styling).

Not this one, it works in every browser I have *except* Safari.

Howdy, could this possibly be related to...

There was a lot of bug-fixing activity around safari and persona right before the summit. Can you verify that it's still failing for you?

The fixes for iOS7 Safari have also fixed desktop Safari 7.0 (9537.71) for me. I noticed that I have "Block cookies and other website data: [x] From third parties and advertisers".
