CVE-2016-2816
Mozilla Firefox before 46.0 allows remote attackers to bypass the Content Security Policy (CSP) protection mechanism via the multipart/x-mixed-replace content type.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.31%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
