Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream MozillaFirefox package and not the MozillaFirefox package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.4 relevant fixed versions and status.

The WebChannel API, which is used to transport various information across processes, did not check the sending principal but rather accepted the principal being sent. This could have led to privilege escalation attacks. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 134, Firefox ESR < 128.6, Thunderbird < 134, and Thunderbird < 128.6.
