CVE-2023-37203

CVSS v2.0

10

High

VectorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Firefox versions prior to 115
Description The issue is related to insufficient validation in the Drag and Drop API, which, when combined with social engineering, may allow an attacker to trick end-users into creating a shortcut to local system files. This could potentially be leveraged to execute arbitrary code.
Recommendations For versions prior to 115, update to version 115 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the Drag and Drop API until a patch is available.
