Firefox security issue?

[Slinwagh]

I was just logged in and viewing my credit card account as I would do any other day of the week.

Any way while i was viewing the details the Logitech G15 keyboard application crashed so I restarted the PC.

I logged in and clicked on the Firefox icon and was prompted as to whether I wanted to restart the session, i selected yes.

Now to my surprise several tabs opened including the page detailing my credit card account, I was logged in and had full access.

Surely this shouldn't happen as any PC logged in using a shared user account would be vulnerable to this exploit wouldn't it?

No that shouldn't happen. However that sounds more like your card company using rubbish cookies and a sever lack of security rather than firefoxs own security.

Thinking about it I have restored sessions in the past when I have been logged into my HSBC accounts and i don't ever remember it happening but i will test now.

The credit card was capital one by the way.

Is this actaully worth reporting to Capital One ?
