NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream firefox package and not the firefox package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

A malicious website could have used a combination of exiting fullscreen mode and requestPointerLock to cause the user's mouse to be re-positioned unexpectedly, which could have led to user confusion and inadvertently granting permissions they did not intend to grant. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 123, Firefox ESR < 115.8, and Thunderbird < 115.8.
