Package: iceweasel
Version: 3.5.16-17
Severity: normal
I use ccencrypt to keep passwords in text files and ccat to display
them on a terminal, then select them with the mouse to use X paste
middle-click to put them into the browser, when the page interferes
with the normal Firefox password manager. For example, usps.com.
However, if I don't middle-click exactly in the password input box,
it pastes the password to the location bar and tries to go there
because I copied the whole line with the newline. That results
in my password being sent out in a DNS query.

Version: 115.12.0esr-1+rm
src:iceweasel has been superseded by src:firefox-esr in version
45.0esr-1 in March 2016. Transitional packages to ease upgrades were
provided in the wheezy, jessie, stretch and buster releases. The
transitional packages have been removed finally before the bullseye
release in August 2021.
After regular security support for buster ended in August 2022 and LTS
support ended in June 2024, I'm closing the remaining bug reports now.
