CVE-2023-6867

Mozilla: Clickjacking permission prompts using the popup transition

Published Dec 19, 2023 CVSS 3.1 · 6.1 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
The timing of a button click causing a popup to disappear was approximately the same length as the anti-clickjacking delay on permission prompts. It was possible to use this fact to surprise users by luring them to click where the permission grant button would be about to appear. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 115.6 and Firefox < 121.
