FileDownload: cannot download file with http connection on firefox 125+

I reported it on bugzilla https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1892115

EDIT: Bug tracked here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1894667

Looks like quite a few bugs around that insecure SSL feature: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1892069 Doesn't look like they tested it enough 😄

Are you using Ajax or non-Ajax downloading? Please include a reproducer.

[github-actions]

Please provide an executable example using the PrimeFaces Test project. This issue will be closed if no activities in 20 days.

Here it's the reproducer.
For the test you need to not use localhost, you must use the ip.
With ajax works, with ajax false not.

It just allows me to download it after pressing a button.

Hmm.. it is broken after download though. I guess it's a FF issue.

[wbss1]

Yes it is almost always in ssl, but if the application is only used on the local network it is not. Example: private server for internal use.
If you click on allow the download and open the file, you will see that it is damaged.

Chrome applies the same policy, but the file is downloaded successfully

@wbss1 i would start scanning the Mozilla bug list to see if this has been reported...

Found this bug from 11 years ago it was the same issue with Virus Scanner in their downloads corrupting Firefox files: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/893054

OK type about:config in your browser bar and disabled these settings and downloads work. Its definitely a Firefox bug.

[wbss1]

Seems like that disable dom.block_download_insecure it's enough.
I will try to report it with bugzilla

Yep it looks like it!
