Issue descriptionThis template is ONLY for reporting security bugs. If you are reporting a Download Protection Bypass bug, please use the "Security - Download Protection" template. For all other reports, please use a different template. Please READ THIS FAQ before filing a bug: https://www.chromium.org/Home /chromium-security/security-faq Please see the following link for instructions on filing security bugs: http://www.chromium.org/Home/chromium-security/reporting-security-bugs NOTE: Security bugs are normally made public once a fix has been widely deployed. VULNERABILITY DETAILS I received access to someone's passwords through the Passwords section VERSION Chrome Version: 54.0.2840.87 m + stable Operating System: Windows 10 Home REPRODUCTION CASE My laptop broke so I borrowed someone's laptop for a while, I downloaded Chrome, logged into my Google account etc. and used it for 2 weeks. I got my own laptop back and downloaded Chrome and logged in and when I tried to log into Facebook, it automatically filled in an e-mail and password and I got access to a total stranger's Facebook account. I checked my passwords in the password manager and noticed several usernames and passwords of this person in my list, I know for a fact that I am the only person that used this laptop while I was logged in and I wiped my SSD when I returned it. The bottom line is that someone's usernames and passwords merged with my Google account somehow. FOR CRASHES, PLEASE INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Type of crash: [tab, browser, etc.] Crash State: [see link above: stack trace, registers, exception record] Client ID (if relevant): [see link above]

Agreed. If you're sharing a laptop, ensure you at least create a brand-new profile or you will inherit/share saved passwords. Better yet is to create a new OS login.
