MEDIUM 6.1EPSS 0.70%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.70%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

Lack of escaping allowed HTML injection when a webpage was viewed in Reader View. While a Content Security Policy prevents direct code execution, HTML injection is still possible. *Note: This issue only affected Firefox for Android. Other operating systems are unaffected.*.
