When I am using Firefox, which has been my primary web browser for years, I find that in the past month, in addition to opening the link that I want, a separate window with information on Alaska cruises or free shipping webpages, which I am not interested in opens. Is this happening to others, and if so, are steps being made to correct this problem. I am collecting some of the extraneous links that have been popping up,

I am using FF 158 on Win11

I noticed that apps after login are being restored with my previous session even if i close the browser and restart the browser!

ways to reproduce the problem: - Login to an app - Exit the browser, ensure the Firefox.exe is not running using Task Manager - Restart the browser and go to the same app URL. - At this point I expect the app to prompt for a password again (It does prompt for a login on Chrome and other browsers including FF 154) however on FF 158 the session is still active!

I have checked the settings in FF 158 and disabled the restore Tabs option on startup however the bug still exists.

This is a serious security issue. Kindly investigate and address

Regards Sanjay

I cannot prevent "McAfee" pop-up viral warnings in Firefox every 90 seconds.

Only when I have Firefox open on my Mac mini using Golden Gate (effective today) and the previous Mac OS version, do I have McAfee warnings (& subscription requests) pop up approximately every 90 seconds. I was able to get a photograph before one disappeared tonight. I also selected the option to disable notifications from that particular sender. (I took photos of at least 3 more pop-ups to include with this question. Please see below.)

Now, I still receive these warning pop-ups with MUCH LESS frequency. I tried uninstalling Firefox and getting a fresh download from Mozilla.org. (I deleted any old download(s) prior to installing the latest version downloaded tonight.) The pop-ups began again as soon as I opened the freshly installed new version of Firefox.

I have 2 other web browsers installed on my computer and these pop-ups do not occur when I use them. Firefox has been my go-to browser for years and I would prefer to keep using it.

1. How do I disable these pop-ups once and for all? (Please note that I have attached 4 samples showing different "senders". So far, the one thing the senders have in common is they all end in ".co.in", originating in India as I am sure you know. 2. Do you have any idea what allowed these pop-ups to "infect" my Firefox - even the freshly installed version? 3. Is there a record of pop-ups saved to Firefox? AKA - what happens to the pop-ups when they disappear before I can click to disable notifications from said sender(s)? 4. Have you had many other people contact you about this issue?

Please reply as soon as possible. I would really appreciate the help.

Message started with this: Software is preventing Firefox from safely connecting to this site. Firefox spotted a potentially serious security issue with attlocal.net. Someone pretending to be the site could try to steal things like credit card info, passwords or emails. Then it showed 2 choices: Go back (recommended) and advanced. CAN YOU HELP ME FIND OUT WHAT I SHOULD DO ABOUT THIS NOW?

Possible Firefox Security Issue – Unexpected Cursor Movement on Mageia and Linux Mint

Hello

I would like to report an issue on Firefox If i work on my Private domain on my laptop my cursor is moving alone some time to time I have also sometimes intrusion after my CPU FAN run very high

I'm on Linux Mint last version but I have also the issue on Linux Mageia 10. (last version one month ago)

I have posted some question to mageia Team Post : viewtopic.php?p=92060#p92060 viewtopic.php?p=93642#p93642

My Suspicion so far from now : The problem is probably an HTTP Flood that permits access to User Security.

So I have two problems: • The problem of the cursor moving. • I also have my CPU fan increasing speed from time to time without reason after I change my User Password. ( Less noticed on Mint so far from now but it's doesn't mean it's better )

After reinstalling my laptop and not moving files, the issue generally occurs again. It's less occuring if I change my IP Address, meaning if my Internet Provider change IP everyday it's less occuring

I went to discuss it with an External IT Consultant (we tried to scan the laptop for viruses and found nothing with multiple antivirus programs, DocWeb, Kaspersky, … ISO Boot Scan). So the issue is probably only an intrusion without any virus, as a Security Leak Exploit on Firefox

(maybe an HTTP Flood Attack from my IP found when I connect to my Domain). Both issues generally occurred first if Firefox was open. It stops if I close Firefox.

It occurred after my work on my private domain. I strongly think, after experimenting with reinstalling, rebooting, etc.,

it’s a security bug or issue on Firefox that makes someone able to control “a little” the cursor when the cursor is moving on the page, which makes life very difficult when you work on your stuff. The cursor is able to go up and down, up and down, something like that. Sometimes it goes across or moves to the bottom of the screen suddenly. Only from the CursorPad. If I use the button mouse controller from my laptop keyboard, the cursor does not move in the same way, I believe. I didn’t try so much with an external mouse. I don’t want to hide the issue.

Trying to currently install a Gateway on my Personal Internet Broadband (but currently an issue because my new Gateway turned off and was not able to start anymore, so I sent it back to the Seller). So still waiting for this.

Issue on Mageia or Mint, so the problem does not come from the distribution, but ( I suspect ) it took time for the guy to come back to the same level. Of intrusion, They need to adapt to the new version of the Distrib. I suspect I'm not 100% sure I’m reporting it to Mozilla Firefox, Mint, and Mageia here.

Thanks for your help. ( I have lot of problem of Availability currently... I'm sorry if I'm not replying so much )
