| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Firefox versions prior to 58
Description
The issue allows for phishing attacks by spoofing the displayed URL in the address bar when a specially formatted URL is dragged from page content. This enables a malicious page to impersonate another site.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 58, update to version 58 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding dragging URLs from page content to the address bar until the update is applied. Restrict access to untrusted websites to minimize the risk of exploitation.
