Hi there, 1. What is the encryption algorithm used by Firefox to store saved passwords locally ? 2. What is the encryption algorithm used by Firefox to store synced passwords on Mozilla's servers ?

I am talking about Firefox 57+ A master password has been set.

Thank you.

Nothing on that page - maybe one of links? Also, nothing there on LOCAL encryption.

On forums only some info about deprecated and insecure 3DES but nothing more...

So it is still using 3DES - that is too bad :(
