3 years agoAndroid TOTP codes accepted by PayPal, but not Firefox codes
Steps to reproduce:
- Sign into paypal.com and enable 2FA on your account.
- Use the 1Password Android app to scan the QR code to set up TOTP in 1Password.
- Sign out of PayPal.
- Sign back into PayPal on an Android device. Observe that PayPal accepts the auto-filled OTP code.
- Sign into paypal.com on desktop Firefox with the 1Password plugin installed.
- Use the 1Password Firefox plugin to auto-fill the OTP code.
Expected: PayPal accepts the OTP code generated by the Firefox extension.
Actual: PayPal rejects OTP codes generated by the Firefox extension and will temporarily lock your account if too many are tried.
- Manually enter an OTP code generated by the Android app into desktop Firefox. Observe the code is accepted, suggesting the problem is in code generation rather than auto-fill behavior.
