Hello !! I notices a strange behavior of Firefox in my notification area of MacBook Air M1 running on macOS Sonoma 14.0. Many times when I am using firefox or minimizing it, it is showing "Firefox is capturing your screen" that can also be seen in attached image. I am not using any type of screen recording or screenshot too in any way neither having any plugin or 3rd party integration in browser nor any proxies. Sometime it also using the Mic and giving symbol of Mic use for few seconds. What's happening ? Can you please look into it.

This is happening to the some users who have installed MacOS Sonoma. To disable this on Mac, try to check the list of apps in Preferences > Privacy & Security > Screen Recording
