A website could have obscured the fullscreen notification by using a URL with a scheme handled by an external program, such as a mailto URL. This could have led to user confusion and possible spoofing attacks. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 115, Firefox ESR < 102.13, and Thunderbird < 102.13.

Weakness

The product uses external input with reflection to select which classes or code to use, but it does not sufficiently prevent the input from selecting improper classes or code.

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Firefox Mozilla * 115.0 (excluding)
Firefox_esr Mozilla * 102.13 (excluding)
Thunderbird Mozilla * 102.13 (excluding)
