| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Firefox versions prior to 80
Description
The issue is related to errors in the representation of information by the user interface. It may allow a remote attacker to conduct spoofing attacks. Specifically, Firefox did not reset the address bar after the beforeunload dialog was shown if the user chose to remain on the page, potentially resulting in an incorrect URL being displayed when combined with other unexpected browser behaviors.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 80, update to version 80 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding situations that trigger the beforeunload dialog to minimize the risk of exploitation.
