website for example like VK - https://vk.com i can't never sign in/log in.. it keeps telling me The page isn’t redirecting properly An error occurred during a connection to login.vk.ru.

   This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

i tried to - delete cookies - delete history - add exception (vk.ru/vk.com) to Cookies and Site Data - private Mode - disable HTTPS-Only Mode - reinstall firefox but still like some other website the same problem.... plz help these websites work fine -- by using other Browsers i can login

Is there any browser issue because I am not using any extensions or ad blockers?

Release 104 Cross-site Redirect Issue

It appears with the latest update, 104.0, my customers are no longer able to log into their accounts with my web site. The console is showing the following warning:

Cookie "JSESSIONID" with the "SameSite" attribute value "Lax" or "Strict" was ommited because of a cross-site redirect.

So the JSESSION ID cookie is being omitted, which is preventing the login process from working correctly.

Going into settings => Privacy and Security and unchecking cookies from the Custom setup still doesn't fix the issue.

The behavior seems to be inconsistent as the same version of Firefox works fine for me on one machine, but generates this warning another, even with the same settings.

Can you explain in more detail why this is happening and steps to fix it?

Thank you, M. Warble

I am unable to sign up for a credit card. The application form does not come up. There is the possibility that it is being blocked, perhaps by a cookie, perhaps by a security feature in the Browser. How do I turn off whatever is blocking the form from popping up?

Hello,

My cookies.sqlite file keeps deleting itself after I start browsing, and after a restart, it replaces it with a new cookies.sqlite file. My actual cookies.sqlite file is 1536kb, and for some reason, that's the magical number that unfortunately is causing me issues or otherwise. Please help!

When navigating to the New Yorker, an error message appears that says "The page isn’t redirecting properly

An error occurred during a connection to www.newyorker.com. This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

It looks like firefox is set up to accept cookies. Where do we need to make the change?

I’m trying to get to www.indeed.com using Firefox. When I get to the website it says, “checking if the site connection is secure, www.indeed.com needs to review the security of your connection before proceeding.” I used inspect to help find the cause of the issue. It says “some cookies are misusing the recommended samesite attribute” the cookie “cf_chl_2” came up 5 times saying “ cf_chl_2” does not have a proper “samesite” attribute value. Soon, cookies without the “samesite” attribute or with an invalid value will be treated as “lax” this means that the cookie will no longer be sent in third-party contexts. If your application depends on this cookie being available in such contexts, please add the “samesite=none” attribute to it. To know more about the “samesite” attribute, read https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Set-Cookie/SameSite

Another cookie is “cf_chl_rc_m”

I don’t want to make these cookies secure if they could potentially cause my computer harm or steal my info. I tried uninstalling Firefox and reinstalling it but it still kept all of my favorites so I’m assuming it didn’t reset and fix Firefox like I had hoped. I don’t have a firefox account on my computer so I’m not sure how favorites came back. Do you know why?

I am using a MacBook Pro M2 chip 2022 and the latest version of firefox. I have also updated my computer. I have run Norton and found no threats on my computer. And firefox wasn’t giving me this issue before.

What do you think I should do?

Thank you in advance for helping.

I love using Firefox but was very surprised. First thing I do is run anti spyware software to clear all the cookies, etc. Then, I opened a private window and access some of my private information. Closed the browser. Then ran the anti spyware again only to find 3 files that were found as invasive. I thought if I used the private window I was protected. What happened? Did I misunderstand?

I am trying to transfer my cookies from Chrome over to Firefox, yet the import wizard has no mention of cookies under the chrome category. Things such as Edge Legacy and Internet Explorer have the cookies tab available.

I read that there was a way to do it manually, but I'm unsure of how.

I know things such as CookieBro exist, but I'm unsure if they're safe and they seem like a way to get all my tokens logged.

I have a web app that uses cookies to reference sessions that contain login status.

For example: when I log in, a session is created that tracks that I am logged in. When I go to another function/page the cookie is deleted, thus I am no longer logged in.

I have the Security set to "Standard" and the website URL unprotected.

Chrome and Safari are fine, it's only Firefox.

What am I missing?

After exiting private browsing, Firefox does not delete cookies. For example, the site: https://4pda.to leaves cookies from the site: devapps.ru | And if the site that I visit is built to redirect to another site, then the cookies of the first site remain in the browser. Try to go with Russian IP to https://aliexpress.com/ and you will be redirected to https://aliexpress.ru/ while the cookies from the first site (aliexpress.com) remain. Manual blocking in Firefox does not work in this case (devapps.ru), adding in block with Adguard helps. The screenshot shows the last two cookies that appeared in normal mode after using private browsing. And my settings. Chrome doesn't have this problem.
