Yep - same on W10/FF120.

It might be something in the new FF120 default settings that is triggering the alert - https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/1 ... easenotes/

Unless you can't log in or it's affecting functionality I wouldn't worry about it too much - you could let the website admins know if it's causing actual issues.

I get the same alert with Librewolf in WSL2 Ubuntu - Librewolf is a hardened version of FF with extreme security settings, so it's almost certainly the security updates to FF120 that are the issue. Interactive ecommerce style websites can be sensitive to these changes as they tend to run a fair bit of JavaScript.

You could try tweaking the new FF settings down a notch to see if you can find the culprit - only do one setting at a time though... ;)

Edit: You used to be able to whitelist websites in FF, which would lower some of the thresholds for listed sites only - but I can't see it in 120. One of the regular user FF experts on here will probably know.
