Mozilla · Firefox · CVE-2022-34482
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Mozilla Firefox versions prior to 102
**Description**
The issue is related to insufficient warnings about dangerous actions in Mozilla Firefox. An attacker could exploit this by manipulating a filename to contain an executable extension when a user drags and drops an image to a filesystem, potentially tricking the user into executing malicious code.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 102, update to version 102 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding dragging and dropping images to the filesystem until a patch is available. Restrict access to executable extensions to minimize the risk of exploitation.
