IPv6 password form submission fails #597

@dd23

Description

@dd23

My setting:
I have a Brother MFC-L8650CDW printer that has a web interface, which I can reach via IPv4 and IPv6 through https. It has a self-signed certificate and thus my browser shows a warning, which I chose to permanently ignore (I don't know if this last part is relevant, though).

The web interface offers an admin login to unlock several management features.
Here's a HTML snip from the website of the login box:

 <div class="SetBox" id="SetBoxAuthRight">
 <div id="SetBoxAuthLeft">
 <form method="post" action="/general/status.html">
 <div>Login
 <input type="password" id="LogBox" name="Ba01" />
 <input type="hidden" name="loginurl" value="/general/information.html?kind=item"/>
 <input id="login" type="submit" value="&nbsp;" />
 </div></form></div></div>

My problem is the following:
Using the printer's IPv4 address, the login works fine in all cases. Using its IPv6 address, the login fails. There's no error message. The same website just reloads when I submit the password.

This happens only in Firefox 47.0 when uMatrix 0.9.3.6 is activated with default settings. Everything works fine when I manually deactivate the filter for that particular website (IPv6 address).

The problem does not occur in Chromium 51.0.2704.103 (64-bit) with uMatrix 0.9.3.3.

Let me know if you need more info.
