CWE-200  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade mozilla to version 41.0 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. Mozilla Firefox before 41.0 does not properly restrict the availability of High Resolution Time API times, which allows remote attackers to track last-level cache access, and consequently obtain sensitive information, via crafted JavaScript code that makes performance.now calls.
