Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.57%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

This allows information leakage of sites visited during private browsing sessions. *Note: this issue only affects Firefox for Android. Desktop versions of Firefox are unaffected.*.
