How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:unstable firefox to version 47.0-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream firefox package and not the firefox package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:unstable relevant fixed versions and status.

Mozilla Firefox before 47.0 allows remote attackers to spoof permission notifications via a crafted web site that rapidly triggers permission requests, as demonstrated by the microphone permission or the geolocation permission.
