CVE-2016-2832
Mozilla Firefox before 47.0 allows remote attackers to discover the list of disabled plugins via a fingerprinting attack involving Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) pseudo-classes.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.49%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
