I open FF (und Ubuntu 8.04) with 3 Masterpassword protected pages at once. FF asks 3 times for the Masterpasspassword instead of only once.

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Under Ubuntu 7.10 it worked properly.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.

 Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.

i confirm that this bug exists, even latest update of ubuntu 9.04 as of 23.4.2009.

Here is how to simulate:
give master password,
go to 3 different pages that is password protected. (same user/pass or not, no importance) save your passwords.
Then close firefox by "save tabs and close"

Then re-open firefox.
You will be asked for master pass for 3 times..
This is not good.
