CVE-2016-9062
This vulnerability affects Firefox < 50.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.39%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
Private browsing mode leaves metadata information, such as URLs, for sites visited in "browser.db" and "browser.db-wal" files within the Firefox profile after the mode is exited. Note: This issue only affects Firefox for Android. Other versions and operating systems are unaffected. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 50.
