Verified as fixed on the latest Aurora and on the latest Nightly on Windows 7, Mac OS X 10.7 and on Ubuntu 12.10:

I will verify that this is fixed on Firefox 18 beta 3. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1082446 Title: Firefox 17.0 ignores cookie exceptions Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Fix Released Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “firefox” source package in Lucid: Fix Released Status in “firefox” source package in Oneiric: Fix Released Status in “firefox” source package in Precise: Fix Released Status in “firefox” source package in Quantal: Fix Released Bug description: $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 12.10 Release: 12.10 $ apt-cache policy firefox firefox: Installed: 17.0+build2-0ubuntu0.12.10.1 Candidate: 17.0+build2-0ubuntu0.12.10.1 Version table: *** 17.0+build2-0ubuntu0.12.10.1 0 500 http://mirror.umd.edu/ubuntu/ quantal-updates/main amd64 Packages 500 http://mirror.umd.edu/ubuntu/ quantal-security/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 16.0.1+build1-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://mirror.umd.edu/ubuntu/ quantal/main amd64 Packages Expected behavior: Firefox should remember the cookie exceptions I've set in versions of Firefox prior to 17.0. It should also store changes I make to exceptions. Actual behavior: Firefox ignore cookie exceptions. It also no longer records them. Workaround: Most users will want to stay on 16.0 until Mozilla fixes this bug. The thread referred to below contains workarounds that require dumping and manipulating an sqlite database.
