CWE-200  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade mozilla to version 43.0 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. Mozilla Firefox before 43.0 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, a related issue to CVE-2015-1300.
