Description Brent Fulgham 2023-04-07 09:51:46 PDT

In Bug 254189 we corrected a bug where the name of the WebKit Built-in PDF plugin was localized for the user's settings, which confused some anti-fraud software because the specification requires the name to be in plain English text.

While that issue was fixed, the specification also requires a consistent English label, "Portable Document Format" be returned by the 'description' property of the plugin. This is currently localized in Safari, leading to some anti-fraud software failing.
