MEDIUM 6.5EPSS 1.21%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.21%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

An iframe sandbox element with the allow-popups flag could be bypassed when using noopener links. This could have led to security issues for websites relying on sandbox configurations that allowed popups and hosted arbitrary content. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 78.1, Firefox < 79, and Thunderbird < 78.1.
