Upgrade Debian:unstable
firefox-esr
to version 45.0esr-1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream firefox-esr
package and not the firefox-esr
package as distributed by Debian
.
See How to fix?
for Debian:unstable
relevant fixed versions and status.
Mozilla Firefox before 45.0 does not properly restrict the availability of IFRAME Resource Timing API times, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy and obtain sensitive information via crafted JavaScript code that leverages history.back and performance.getEntries calls after restoring a browser session. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2015-7207.
