It would seem Firefox claims ownership of my file system and does not allow me to make changes even with admin permissions. I am completely prohibited from making any changes to the profile folder, copying any files into it, or doing anything other than copying from it. Simple chrome edits are utterly impossible, and security tabs or changing permissions has no effect.

This is rather worrisome.

I have a APC UPS and the software provides status information on localhost 6547. For the last 9 months since I got this UPS this has not ever been an issue, but for the last three days I keep getting an error message when the APC software tries to open a tab in Firefox. The error message is "Firefox spotted a potentially serious security issue with localhost:6547".

How do I make an exception for the APC software so I don't have to authorize Firefox to open the tab every time I want to look at status information for the APC UPS now?

I hope the firefox desktop browser, supports to protect the profile from getting access by other person, who uses the PC. Whole disk encryption is too heavy, so I want to protect the profile on browser side since you already support master password to protect the 'Password'.

Feature request: For a profile with firefox account loggined. Prompt to re-type the password to open the browser, or you can also lock the browser manually until re-type the password. Then able to access the bookmarks and history, so as the session tabs.

Hi I've used Firefox for decades. Now, since updating to Firefox 158.0 (aarch64) on my Mac Studio and a Macbook Pro, I’ve been unable to open my usual banking websites. They still work in Safari on the same Mac & Macbook Pro and through the banks’ iPhone apps.

Have any recent Firefox security or privacy changes affected banking websites? Which settings should I check, and how can I safely allow these sites without disabling protection for all websites?

Firefox blocks my GitHub Actions firmware ZIP as malware despite a clean antivirus scan

Hello,

I'm building custom firmware for a Makerdiary nRF52840 USB dongle using GitHub Actions.

When I tried downloading the generated ZIP file, Firefox blocked it with the warning: "This file contains a virus or malware."

I removed the blocked download rather than overriding Firefox's protection.

The ZIP contains custom `.uf2` firmware for an embedded USB device. The GitHub Actions build passed its validation checks, and an independent ClamAV scan of the original firmware reported 0 infected files. I subsequently built and scanned an updated version, which also passed.

Original blocked build: https://github.com/flips96-art/hid-remapper/actions/runs/39094413639

Latest build: https://github.com/flips96-art/hid-remapper/actions/runs/39096517313

Latest antivirus scan: https://github.com/flips96-art/hid-remapper/actions/runs/39096868117

I understand that a clean ClamAV scan does not guarantee the file is safe.

Could someone help me determine why Firefox classified this download as malware and explain how to submit it for a possible false-positive review without disabling Firefox's security protections?

Thank you!
