Hello,
After updating to 1.1.14, when I go to www.wellsfargo.com, the line for
the password entry box is gone! This has never happened with prior
versions. Any suggestions?
This is because they are using insecure (!) methods to do their
JavaScript on that page, unfortunately.
This does not tell me why it used to work with 1.1.13 and no longer
works with 1.1.14. Could you please elaborate? Thanks
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=470049 contains the story,
basically.
What happens is that they deliver a part of the login page through a
third-party page they don't control, which we block because it's an
insecure thing to do and could possibly lead to password hijacking and
such things. In Firefox 3 and SeaMonkey 2 we allow such content to be
loaded by applying additional checks to make sure it cannot be misused,
but that needs Gecko to use even more code that the developers didn't
want to introduce into the stable version used by Firefox 2 and
SeaMonkey 1.1.x.
It's IMHO a bug of Wells Fargo to load parts of their login page through
the third-party service of Akamai which they can not control and so
don't even know for sure what people see on the login page.
