MEDIUM 6.5EPSS 1.26%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.26%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

A mechanism where disruption of the loading of a new web page can cause the previous page's favicon and SSL indicator to not be reset when the new page is loaded. Note: this issue only affects Firefox for Android. Desktop Firefox is unaffected. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 50.
