Authorization denied for request from a bank website

When I try to access a function of my banks website I get the message: Authorization has been denied for this request

Late last year this occurred when using FireFox but not Chome or Edge. I have contacted my bank and was told I need to add an exception to the Manage Exceptions list. I did that and I was able to access that function of the site. Now the error is occurring again. This time I figured out what the URL was that needed be added. All other functions of the site work fine without these exceptions.

My question is: what are the security ramifications of this and what do I tell my bank so they fix this? Does this make their site less or more secure? Is it necessary to fix this?

Windows 11; FF 146.0.1. All updates installed.

Well, I think I posted too soon.

I did some more testing, and deleting of the site data and one I added the second exception URL and accessed that function which then worked. Then, I again deleted all the site data from FF, including the exception, and the site is still working. Must have been some left over data that finally got cleared.

All is working now, without the exception needed. Thanks for listening.
