GHSA-j5jj-f68h-7qh9 PUBLISHED CVSS 4.300000190734863 MEDIUM

Record from GitHub Advisory Database · Published May 17, 2022

Mozilla Firefox before 48.0 does not properly set the LINKABLE and URI_SAFE_FOR_UNTRUSTED_CONTENT flags of about: URLs that are used for error pages, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct spoofing attacks via a crafted URL, as demonstrated by misleading text after an about:neterror?d= substring.
